The experimental proof for semiconservative replication of DNA was conducted by Meselson and Stahl on E.coli Bacteria. The bacteria were exposed to an environment of a heavy isotope of Nitrogen. They continued this for fourteen generations. They observed that the DNA of the bacteria had not just the 14 N nitrogen (as is naturally present0 but the isotope from the medium as well. Thus, proving the semiconservative replication theory.

Thanks for the question!
It is definitely a very interesting question to solve and do some brainstorming.
**************************************************
The experimental proof for semi-conservative replication of DNA was conducted in the Meselson–Stahl experiment is an experiment by Matthew Meselson and Franklin Stahl in 1958 on E.coli Bacteria.
E. coli is a common type of bacteria that enters into foods, like beef and vegetables. They are not harmful and E. coli normally lives inside your intestines.
