Amplification of DelH F1

Gel Purification

45 µl of DelH F1 PCR (08-05) product were run on a 0,8% agarose gel (1 h with 135V). Gel extraction was performed using gel extraction kit of Qiagen, and diluted in 25 µl ddH2O.

Result

Sample Concentration [ng/µl]
DelH F1 7
=> Because the concentration is so low, a re-PCR of the PCR product (08-05) is going to be done.

Amplification of DelH F2

Gel Purification
