・Densitometry of backbone plasmids
1. Diluted DNA samples 50 times with a solvent
2. Turned on the machine; GeneQuant 100
3. Poured the solvent 100 μl into a cuvette and adjusted 0

・Electrophoresis
1. Put an agalose gel into the tank, and poured TBE buffer.
2. Mixed DNA samples: loading buffer = 9: 1. Loaded samples into wells.
