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.
This is a fanatic post!! I am so glad you are here to learn the world of Biology it really can take you places. Great job on the explanation of the results of the gel. You will be surprised at how fast your post will advance.
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
It is a good post Rebecca. Learning to use micro-pipets is a really good lab skill to learn. As you mentioned, you can use different ones to dispense different volumes of a sample. It’s cool how you can use this technique to do other procedures like Bradford assays that can be used to find concentrations of interest. I wonder what expression the gene will do.
ReplyDeleteGreat post Rebecca! Really like how you explained what you saw on the gel! Its cool what you can see under a fluorescent light, especially with the DNA!
