Composite Parts




Foreword

Materials

  • 1g Agarose
  • 100ml 1X TAE buffer
  • 5µl GelRed stain

Procedure

  • 1. Mix the agarose with the 1X TAE buffer in a flask.
  • 2. Heat the mixture until all the agarose is dissolved.
  • 3. Swirl the flask under cold running water to cool the mixture.
  • 4. Add the gel stain.
  • 5. Pour into an assembled gel tray and let it cool.

Materials

  • 1% Agarose
  • 1X TAE buffer
  • 5X loading dye
  • DNA ladder
  • DNA samples

Procedure

  • 1. Place gel tray into the electrophoresis apparatus.
  • 2. Pour 1X TAE so that the gel is covered by buffer.
  • 3. Prepare the samples by adding the appropriate amount of loading dye.
  • 4. Load samples and DNA ladder into wells on the gel.
  • 5. Run the gel at roughly 100V for around an hour

Materials

  • 10ml Luria Broth (LB)
  • 10µl Specific Antibiotic at 1000x (Chloramphenicol, Ampicillin or Kanamycin)
  • Loop (for picking colony)
  • Ethanol

Procedure

  • 1. Pour 10ml of LB into a 50ml Falcon tube.
  • 2. Pipette 10µl of antibiotic into the broth.
  • 3. Dip loop in ethanol and flame to sterilise. Once it is cool, pick colony and transfer to a 50ml Falcon tube.
  • 4. Incubate at 37°C overnight in a shaking incubator.
