Lab Work

Plasmid extraction

by Pauline

Biobricks:

  • BBa_K1707008 #1 to #6
  • BBa_I13600 #1 and #2

With the Macherey-Nagel Extraction kit

Digestion Verification

by Pauline and Coralie

Biobricks: BBa_K1707008 #1 to #6

Mix:

  • 2 µL Plasmid
  • 0,5 µL XbaI
  • 0,5 µL PstI
  • 1 µL Buffer FastDigest 10x
  • 6 µL H2O

Incubation 2h, 37°C


Electrophoresis

by Pauline

Agarose gel 1% Migration 90V

We can conclude that all BBa_K1707008 clones are OK We make a glycerol stock of #1 and #2


Electrophoresis

by Pauline and Coralie

Agarose gel, 1%

Migration 100V

We can conclude that:

  • BBa_K1707021: #2, #3, #4 and #6 are OK
  • BBa_K1707011: #1 to #6 are OK
  • BBa_K1707004: #1 to #6 are OK

We make glycerol stock of them.

Digestion

by Coralie

XbaI + PstI:

  • BBa_K1707011
  • BBa_K1707004 x2
  • BBa_E0022
  • BBa_E0422
  • BBa_K1707012

SpeI + Pst

New culture

by Pauline

Biobricks:

  • BBa_K1707008
  • BBa_I13600 (2014)

6 clones of each in 5mL LB + 20µg/mL of chloramphenicol

Incubation at 37°C, 250 rpm

Soil experiment

by Coralie

Soil

Observation of plates (31/07/2015):

  • Soil + H2O on new MCK: lots of colonies are visible
  • Soil + LB on new MCK: lots of colonies are visible
  • LB on new MCK: nothing
  • MCK alone: nothing

We can suppose two different hypothesis:

  • The soil is contaminated
  • the MCK isn't OK for our experiment: now we add lactose in the preparation. We will try with sorbitol instead of lactose.

We try soil + H2O and soil +LB on:

  • MCK + Sorbitol: Without antibiotics, with Spectinomycine, Tetramycine or Chloramphenicol
  • MCK + Lactose: Without antibiotics, with Spectinomycine, Tetramycine or Chloramphenicol

Incubation ON, 37°C
