Thank You S-STEM

(the photo above is a fluorescens I gram stained in the beginning of this program)
I had a great time this semester, and while this is a late blog post, I would like to thank everyone who helped me out in the lab. Being very new to biology, it was a struggle to understand everything, but because of everyone's patience, I made it through! Thank you everyone!

10/16 + 10/19 Lab

10/16 was another day of filling a well plate with acetic acid. 10/19, my lab partner and I filled three new wells plates with our 3 salts and our D. Gobi, just like our original two plates were, with an added combination this time (AB+AC+BC). Each plate had 2 salts in that combination.

3/24 Lab

3/24/18 was my first day in the STEM lab and in a biology lab, so sorry if this post is a bit confusing or does not make sense because my concept of biology is fairly weak. In this picture, it shows a putative lactonase sample. On line 2, there was no DNA; it was clean. On lines 3 and 4, it shows the bands seen at approximately 800 bpm, and in line 5 there was no band present. In this lab, I learned a lot about the micro-pipets and which ones to use during specific steps of this process. I am still very new to all of this, so hopefully my future posts will be more understandable.

Week of 4/1

This week I helped Chad prepare some new, very expensive equipment for autoclave. I put in some metals, and Chad put in some glass to be autoclaved with the equipment. This piece of equipment will be used to grow biofilm on different coupons to experiment with how it grows on the different surfaces.
