9/19/12: DNA Extraction

Data: 215 Cells/5 Squares = 43 cells/square x = 43*100*4*10^(-3) x = 43 cells/square (43/.004 mm^3) 1000100 = 1.075*10^9 cells/mL (2.5*10^(7)) cells / (1.075*10^9 cells) = .023mL of bacteria

Then start the extraction using the mini-prep kit (insert link to mini prep kit protocol )

Turn on the thermomixer when the buffers are being added -Temp at 56 degree C for 10 minutes -Takes around 5 minutes to heat up

Use filter tips since we’re working with DNA

As a funny mess up, we ended up throwing away the glass slip for the hemocytometer!!!

9/26/12 Glycerol stocks + Agar+ Nanodrop


-Prepare 50 % glycerol (25mL H2O and 25 mL glycerin) -Agar w/chloramphenciol a. 100mM PIPES b. 1 M CaCl2 c. 1 L Agar

Nanodrop -add small drop of DiH2O 3 times -dab with kim wipe do not wipe -dab both top and bottom bend -log onto ND1000 program and select nucleic acid -add DIH2O with micropipette and close top 2x - add 1 micro liter of DNA to nanodrop, close and measure -save and print

Results: 24.1 nanogram/microliter 260/280 = 1.82 260/230 = .49 Remember to clean machine with DI H2O after use!

1 M CaCl2 Protocol -calculate morality of 1M CaCl2 Mass = M*Vol*MW Mass = 14.702 grams per 100 mL of H2O Add 60 L H2O to beaker Add 14.702g CaCl2 to beaker and stir Add back to column and fill up to 100mL Use 150 mL filter until

PIPES protocol Weight out 2.307 g of pipes solid Required solution must be at 7pH so add NaOH and measure pH using pH stripes or indicator Once at 7 pH add dH2O until 100mL Use 150 mL filter unit

9/27/12 Antibiotic plates

Calculations (Note: Dilution formula was used) Chloramphenicol: (6mg/mL)x=(.025mg/mL)(250mL) x = 1mL Kanamycin: (25 mg/mL)x = (0.05 mg/mL)(250mL) x = .5mL Streptomycin: (20mg/mL)x = (0.02 mg/mL)(250mL) x = .25 mL

Antibiotic Plates (Con’t): Data 1. Chloramphencial: Recommended = 25microgram/mL, stock = 6 mg/mL 2. Kanamycin: Recommended = 50 microgram/mL, stock = 25 mg/mL 3. Strephtomycin: Recommended = 20 microgram/mL, stock = 20 mg/mL

Note: Color coded the plates: Chloramphenciol (Green) Kanamycin (Orange) Strep/Chloram (Green Black)

Bacterial Incubation with Antibiotics E coli W – no antibiotics FMJ 39- strepromycin (25microgram/mL) JW 228- Kanamycin (25 microgram/mL) Bba_K27300- 1000x Amp

To make 1000x Amp (25mg/mL)V = (25microgram/mL)(5mL) V = 5 microliter

Incubate bacteria in 5mL of LB with antibiotics


Glycerol stocks of bacteria Note: Remember to use Aseptic Technique! -Mix 700 micro liter log phase culture with 300 microliter 50 % glycerol -Vortex -Store into cryotube -place in -80 degree C for storage

Nanodrop for HTCC 2181 -Same procedure as the one above

Results: -260/280: 1.78 -260/230: .17 -2 ng/microliter

260/280: 1.98 260/230: .13 1.4 ng/microliter

260/280: 2.53 260/230: .13 2.9 ng/microliter

TAE buffer 1 x for electrophoresis Calculations C1V1 = C2V2 50V1 = (1x)(1000mL) V1 = 20mL of 50x

Primer Stocks [100 micromolar primered stocks] -AD BB Pfx Add 633 microliter DH20 -AD GSA Bt Add 1213 micro lite rDH2O -FO GSA Tp Add 1314 microliter DH2O FO BB Sfx Add 615 microliter DH2O

Diluted to 10 micromolar working volumes

Incubated FMJ39 and JW 1228 for competent because not sure which strain will be used

9/28/12 PCR & Solution prep

CaCl 2 solution

CaCl2 Solution Stock: 60mM CaCl2 1M 15% glycerol 50 % 10mmM PIPES 100 mM

Need 176 mL = 180 mL so V2 = 180 mL

V1 = C2V2/C1

=(60mM x 180mL)/(1000mM) = 10.8mL (1M) CaCl2

=(15%*180mL)/ (50%) = 54 mL glycerol 50%

= (10mM x 180mL)/(100mM) = 18 mL/82.8mL PIPES (100mM)

=97.2mL/180mL DH2O?

Calculations were done with 200 mL a. 12 mL CaCl2 C1 = .03M Vtot = 200mL b. 60 mL glycerol C1 = .5M c. 20 mL PIPES C1 = .1M

Must be filter sterilized afterwards!
