We plan to keep individual lab books as well as a single collaborative lab book which will be scanned for access on this wiki. Whilst our system is developed we will keep records of our lab work in the following calendar:
Goofs

Agar Snots
- Plating our transformations onto the wrong antibiotics
- Agar snots
Fran
- Coughed on one of our plates that we had transformed after a ligation to see if she had a throat infection. We (Beth) got excited when something grew as we thought maybe this one ligation had worked. It had not.
Beth
- Dropped a beaker whilst washing it a smashed it
Rachel
- Drops all the petri dishes
- Boiling over agar
- Broke plastic of plate and stabbed through agar plate with her fingers
Flick
- Left columns in at end of miniprep and out on a 30°C bench so all the stuff in the column was released into our plasmid solution
Adam
- Plated onto wrong antibiotic plates, killed all the bacteria
- Put stuff in fridge rather than incubator
Josh
