Making samples for DNA sequencing
Making chloroamphenicol/IPTG plates
- 400ml of agar
- Boil for 3min x2
- Boil for 2min x2
- Cool to 40C
- Add 800ul of chloroamphenicol at 25um/ml
- Add 400ul IPTG at 0.15um/ml
- Makes 20 petri dishes
Streaked out samples of the limonene/pSB1C3 ligated plasmid
- Streaked samples 5.1, 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 onto the chloroamphenicol/IPTG plates
- IPTG was used to induce the lac operon, and therefore induce limonene synthesis
- Plates were labelled using special symbols by only one team member to ensure double-blinded test
Made polystyrene strips
--> include video here
Overnight culture preparation
- To make glycerol broths, so sample can be frozen and preserved
- Use four universal tubes, add:
- 4ml Luria Broth
- 8ul chloroamphenicol
- Add bacteria from the original plates (sample 5.1, 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 into a single tube each respectively)
