Result
Expected band: 5 Kb
There is a specific band, but not at 5 Kb.
- => We cannot amplify F1b from a PCR fragment. Use fresh bacteria instead.
Preparation of fresh ACM media
- Mix ingrediants according to Acidovorax complex medium
- Autoclave
- pH adjust to 7,3
- Mix 500 ml media and 6 g agar
- Autoclave again
- Pour plates
Preparation of fresh D. acidovorans
- Inocculate 5 ml ACM media with D. acidovorans
- Incubate ON
- Prepare glycerol stock
- Streak some of culture on plates

Fragment | Band | Conclusion | Next step |
---|---|---|---|
F1a purified on 12-07 | strong bands at 1, 2 and 3 Kb weak band at wanted 5 KB | PCR purification of F1a step was not the right purifying step | load complete probe on gel and gel extract |
F1b purified on 12-07 | weak band at 5 Kb | maybe only low concentration | run PCR again |
F2 | no band | maybe too low concentration | run PCR again |
BB | weak band at 7.4 Kb | maybe only low concentration | run PCR again |
Gel Extraction of DelH F1a
Expected band: 5 KB, loaded entire F1a purified on 12-07 on gel
No band visible.
- => Gel extract earlier PCR from 06-07.
Expected band: 5 Kb
PCR shows expected band.
