Notes of Experiments

July 6th, 2012

  1. We discuss our all of the possible projects, and finally choose one. And then allocate works to specific member.
  2. Do some pre-experiment and make some reagants.
    1. Liquid LB
      1. 10g tryptone
      2. 5g yeast extract
      3. 10g NaCl
    2. Solid LB
      1. 10g tryptone
      2. 5g yeast extract
      3. 10g NaCl
      4. 20g agar
  3. Cleaned up the lab and laboratory instruments

July 8th, 2012

  1. Solutions for extracting plasmid.
    1. 50mM Glucose / 25mM Tris-Cl / 10mM EDTA,pH=8.0
    2. 0.2N NaOH / 1% SDS
    3. 3M KOAc / 2M HOAc
  2. Experiment technologies training, such as making gel, gel electrophoresis.
