Soil experiment

by Coralie and Johan

Soil

Observation of J0 plates: there are a lot of colony in each.

Control (-):

• MCK + Tet: 40 pink colonies
• MCK + Cm: 10 pink colonies
• MCK + Spectino: 1 pink colony
• MCK: 100 pink colonies and a lot of white colonies

We can suppose that we have a contamination between our experiment and control. Or maybe we have a MCK problem because we change it during the experiment.

So, we decide to stop the experiment and do some test:

• Soil + H2O on new MCK
• Soil + LB on new MCK
• LB on new MCK
• MCK alone

Incubation over night, 37°C

New culture

• BBa_I13602

With plasmid: PIJ773

Incubation at 37°C, 250 rpm

Member present:

• Instructors: Alice
• Students: Coralie, Audrey, Pauline, Johan and Seong-Koo
