Griffith ANS injected mice with bacteria, discovered concept of transformation
Sia & Dawson ANS repeated Griffith's experiment in vitro, proved that mice had nothing to do
with transformation
Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty ANS used DNase, RNase, and protease to determine that DNA is
the factor in transformation
Hershey and Chase ANS used radioactive isotopes of P and S to determine that DNA is the
genetic material
