Isolation of ligated plasmid

• The ligated plasmid- chloramphenicol backbone and limonene biobrick, were isolated from cells that were incubated overnight in broth by miniprep.
• Protocols from both Bioline kit and Thermoscientific were used for the miniprep.
• there were 6 tubes containing the plasmid.
• The plasmid concentration in each of the 6 tubes were measured.
• 200ng of plasmid from each of the 6 different tube was used for digestion.

Digestion of ligated plasmid

• Master Mix (changes were made from the protocol)
  • 2ul of NEB Buffer
  • 1ul of EcoRI
  • 1ul of PstI
  • varying concentration of dH2O and plasmid depending on overall concentration of plasmid in each tube.
  • Final volume of each of the 6 tubes was 20ul.
