Welcome to Spluff's guide to the biotechnology elements brought to GT:NH by Bartwork's Biolab and Vat. Here, you'll find a guide to using these machines as well as a primer to the real science behind how they work, which will hopefully make understanding how to use them easier.
== The Biolab ==
The Biolab is a one stop shop for all your biotechnological needs. Because it has so many different functions, which type of recipe it is able to perform at a given time is controlled by the ''module'' placed in the slot at the lower right of its inventory. If no module is inserted, the biolab will simply extract bacteria from items/fluids inserted into it and place them in a sterilized petri dish as a new culture.[[File:DNAExtractionModule.png|alt=|left|frameless|32x32px]]▼

=== DNA Extraction ===
The DNA Extraction Module allows the DNA of a specific species of bacterial culture to be taken from the petri dish and placed in a DNA Sample Flask. This process requires distilled water and ethanol cells, as well as detergent, which can be extracted from vines, to break open the membranes of cells.

== The Bacterial Vat ==
The Bacterial Vat is a machine used to process items/fluids using the biological activity of a population of bacteria. A bacterial culture on an agar plate must be supplied to the machine to start the population off.
