BioBrick Cards

In a complete deck there are 100 double sided BioBrick cards, split in to four groups: Promoters, Ribosome binding sites, Protein coding regions, and Terminators. The cards can be printed back to back, on single sheets and stuck together, or single sided in order to save ink. It should be noted that despite our best efforts the double sided printing option may not always be correctly aligned.

Firstly, open the correct BioBrick PDF file. If you have access to a double sided printer click here, and for single sided printers click here. Both links open in a new tab.

Secondly, press "print" and locate the printing properties for your browser and ensure portrait printing is selected. For single sided prints, do not change any options. For double sided prints select "flip on short side". If you wish to save paper and ink here by printing only the fonts of the cards only print odd pages (1,3,5...19), this is only recommended for single side printing.

Lastly, if printing double sided use scissors or a guillotine to separate the cards. If printing printing single sided stick pairs of pages back to back (5 and 6 for example) before cutting.
