Incubated the tubes at 37C with shaking at 300rpm for 18 hours. Measured OD600 values of cultures in cuvettes and calculated the dilution required for each sample to obtain the OD value of 0,5. Diluted and re-measured the samples to reach 5% accuracy of 0,5. Transfered 200ul of each sample into 96-well transparent plate and set the platereader to read fluorescence intensity.

+ | <p>Most samples generated overflow values which could not be measured with the plate reader. The incubation may have generated too much fluorescence proteins even though the samples were diluted properly. The problem wasn't solved after new dilutions of 9:10 ratio and due to the time limit, other ratios weren't attempted.</p> | ||
