-
# autoclave 50&nbsp;mL medium with 1.5&nbsp;%&nbsp;(w/v) agarose (has to be multiplied with the number of chips prepared).

-
=== Chip preparation ===
 
-
 
-
# mix the cooled medium with the cells by inverting gently.
 
-
# pour it in the chip form, avoiding bubble formation (!).
 
-
# wait for approximately 20 min until the agar has solidified.
 
-
# cut out the chips with a scalpel.
 
-
# put two chips into a labeled petri dish and store additional 4 chips in labeled petri dishs in the refrigerator.
 
-
# incubate two chips for 1&nbsp;h at 37&nbsp;°C prior to induction.

== PCR ==
 
-
 
-
We have used several different types of PCR throughout our project:
 
-
 
-
* colony PCR
 
-
* check PCR
 
-
* gradient PCR
 
-
* SOE PCR
 
-
* touchdown PCR
 
-
* QuikChange(Ligation-During-Amplification)
 
-
 
-
The scope of appplication as well as the conduct are described below.

* 1 µl primer_F
 
-
* 1 µl primer_R
 
-
* pick colony with tip and suspend in PCR tube

-
* apply the prepared samples together with a protein marker on the gel
 
-
* run the gel for 10&nbsp;min at 60&nbsp;V and after that for ca. 60&nbsp;min at 120&nbsp;V

== Measurement of fluorescence ==
 
-
 
-
The measurement of fluorescence was performed using the Synergy Mx (BioTek) microplate reader and the Gen5 software.
 
-
 
-
* volume of sample in each well: 100µl
 
-
* measure GFP fluorescence at an excitation wavelength of 496&nbsp;nm and an emission wavelength at 516&nbsp;nm
 
-
 
-
== Measurement of optical density ==
 
-
 
-
Depending on the number of samples, two different devices were used for measurement of optical density, the Unico Spectrophotometer 1201 (Fisher Bioblock Scientific) and the Synergy Mx (BioTek) microplate reader.

Protocols

In our experiments, we often re-used protocols for basic experimental steps. For a better overview, we split our protocols into four categories:

  • 2D Detection of IPTG & HSL
  • Culture Media
  • Molecular Biological Methods
  • Analytical Methods

To access the protocols, please click on the respective category panel below:
