Lab work

D - Lemon Scent

by Mélanie & Pierre

We have done a PCR with pcola (geranyl synthase) and BBa_K517003:

Green GotaqBuffer = 10µl

MgCl2 = 4µl

dNTP = 1µl

Primer A = 1µM

Primer B = 1µM

DNA = 1µl

Gotaq DNA polymerase = 0.25µl

Oligo used : iPS81bis AND iPS82 (pcola) iPS69 and iPS68bis (BBa_K517003)

PCR cycles:

95° 2min

95° 30sec

49-55° 30 sec

72° 2min

71° 5min

Electrophoresis to test results :

1. 10 µl of BBa_K517003
2. 10 µl of BBa_K517003
3. 10 µl of BBa_K517003
4. 10 µl of BBa_K517003
5. 10 µl of BBa_K517003
6. 10 µl of p. cola
7. 10 µl of p. cola
8. 10 µl of p. cola
9. 10 µl of p. cola
10. 10 µl of p. cola

Purification of the previous PCR

by Pierre

From the 5 tubes of p.Cola I cleaned up two tubes. From the 5 tubes of BBa_K517003 I cleaned up two tubes.

I did an electroforesis to check if the clening has worked. It did.

1. 1 µl of BBa_K517003
2. 1 µl of p. cola

Human Pratices

Art & Design

by Terry

Sequel of yesterday molding attempt.

The mold is cut delicately and the test piece removed.

Then, the mold is placed back in the becher and filled up with regular agar ( 20mg/ml )

Result : FAILURE, the agar test piece has been ripped when unmolding. It was stuck to the mold.

But the mold is still intact ! I cleaned it up and slightly covered the inward surface with liquid soap. The mold is filled up again and conserved in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

Result : SUCCESS, I slightly remoistened the gel with water for an easier unmolding. The agar test piece is perfectly removed.
