Morning

  • Tried to make 1 litre of clear agar using :

5g NaCl

15g Tryptone

15g Agar

5g Soytone

Tryptone, NaCl and soytone were added into a mixer with a magnetic stirrer. (was a yellow colour).

3g of agar were added to two 200ml durans. The Tryptone mix was then added to the durans, filling it up to 200ml.

Mixture was yellow, not colourless - the experiment was not successful. Durans put in the autoclave in the evening to let the agar set overnight.

Afternoon

  • Transformation of competent cells
