	ECB Lifecycle This animation goes through the life cycle of the European corn borer and how Bt affects the insect.

	Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) This animation depicts the process of PCR. Each component involved in the process is outlined and described in this animation.

	Sub-Soil Contact This animation shows how plants uptake herbicides from the soil.

	Refuge Designs with YieldGard Rootworm Corn This animation discusses the importance of Insect Resistance Management (IRM) and illustrates different field refuge designs.

	Taqman The Taqman probe detection system used in real time PCR (also known as quantitative PCR) is illustrated in this animation. One application of this method is use in GMO detection.

	Lateral Flow Strip Test This animation illustrates the concepts of protein detection using the lateral flow strip method. This method is simliar to ELISA and is utilized in detecting GMOs, among other applications.

	Phosphorus in Surface Waters This animation demonstrates the four forms that phosphorus (P) can take in surface water, and how the equilibrium between the forms can be upset and then rebalanced.
