Lab work

Transformation of competent E.coli cells

by Fabio, Maher and Romain

We transformed in DH5α the following Biobrick:

• BBa_J23119

Samples:

1. Concentrated
2. Undiluted
3. Diluted 10^-1
4. Control

Results:

1. Concentrated: 99 colonies
2. Undiluted: 5 colonies
3. Diluted: 0
4. Control: 0

Conclusion: Since the first transformations experiments with the iGEM's Biobricks, none of the diluted samples have grown. The undiluted ones have grown in some cases. We conclude that for future experiments and mainly for the project, we must use concentrated cultures.
