Small Phage May - June Notebook: June 17 - June 30 Daily Log



Overview
March-April
May-June
July-August
September-October


6/17/13

- Plated 5 controls and 50 selection plates (500ug at -2) as part of selection 1 in 6.12 Mutagen Concentration Test - Perfected Protocol


6/18/13

- Started approximately 50mL of BL21 liquid culture overnight.


6/19/13

- We performed Large Plaque Confirmation 1 as part of 6.12 Mutagen Concentration Test - Perfected Protocol


6/23/13

- Started 40mL of BL21 liquid culture overnight.


6/24/13

- Made more x8 top agar. - Because the large plaque confirmation 1 had contamination from overnight (the LB was contaminated the next day), we redid the confirmation procedure: Large Plaque Confirmation 2 in 6.12 Mutagen Concentration Test - Perfected Protocol.


6/26/13

- Made about 50ml of BL21 liquid culture overnight


6/27/13

- Started the mutagenesis procedure for 6.27_Mutagen_Concentration_Test_-_Third_Protocol


6/5/13

- Discussed plans for the selection process of 5.20 Mutagen Concentration Experiment and calculated the needed volume of agar, overnight, and phage

- Made 500mL x8 agar

- Performed dilution series to generate enough 200ug -4 phage stock for selection.


6/6/13

- Started approximately 50mL of BL21 liquid culture overnight.


6/7/13

- Performed the selection process of 5.20 Mutagen Concentration Experiment. Specifically, we plated 45 plates of 200ug mutagen, -4 phage dilution using x8 agar. 5 plates of 0ug, -3 phage dilution were also done a control.


6/9/13

- Started 21mL of BL21 overnight.


6/10/13

- Made 1250mL of x8 top agar

- Attempted to amplify phage from larger plaques in 5.20 Mutagen Concentration Experiment


6/11/13

- Started approximately 70mL of BL21 liquid culture overnight


6/12/13

- Perfected protocol for applying mutagen to phage

- Started 6.12 Mutagen Concentration Test - Perfected Protocol


6/13/13

- Started approximately 30mL of BL21 liquid culture overnight.


6/14/13

- Titered the mutagenesis product from Wednesday as part of 6.12 Mutagen Concentration Test - Perfected Protocol


6/16/13

- Started approximately 100mL of BL21 liquid culture overnight.
