Measuring the concentrations of isolated P. putida DNA from the previous day

  • Measuring concentration using nanodrop
  • Blanking against buffer

Preparing samples to run on 1% gel

  • 500ng of each of the isolated P. putida DNA sample is run on gel
  • Volumes are adjusted to 20ul per well accordingly (includes DNA, sterile H2O and OG)
  • 5ul of orange G dye is added to each sample
  • 5ul of 1kb ladders are used
  • For sheared DNA, dilutions were loaded
    • 1ul of DNA was diluted in 9ul of 1xTE buffer to make up 10x dilution
    • 1ul from 10x dilution was put in 9ul of 1xTE buffer to make up 100x dilution
  • Dilutions were nanodropped and the concentration for 100 fold dilution was 121 ng/ul
  • 200ng of herring sperm DNA was run on gel
  • One lane was left for control, non-sheared DNA, also 100 fold dilution

Samples in lanes goes as follows: 1 Kb ladder, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 1 kb ladder, 100x dilution of sheared herring sperm DNA, control 100x diluted herring sperm DNA
