NOTEBOOK
We've recorded all of our achievements and blunders along the way, so you can follow our thought process as we overcame challenges and moved forward in our research.

None formed colonies except imc181r4.1 Ptac-lacOc-aph(3')-VIa-IMBB control. This suggests that the pSB1C3 vector can somehow recircularize without forming the parental construct.

7. BS57h4.1 tetR-PtetA-tetM-pUC57-mini (pIM1842, Mach1)
6/2/16 4:50 p.m.
Transferred 4 mls of each group of cells into each of two tubes, with repeated centrifugations and decantations. Followed the protocol outlined by the “Plasmid DNA Purification Using the QIAPrep Spin Miniprep Kit and a Microcentrifuge”, using 50 uL of EB Elution Buffer.
5aii. Gel Filtration
Using GSO Gel prepared by Cyrillus, 850ul of gel were spinned in a column at 2000rpm for 2 mins. 100ul of sample was added to the column which was placed in a new tube and centrifuged at 2000rpm for 2 mins.
5aiii. Take 3 DNA Quantification
Using the Take 3, 2 uls of each sample were placed for quantification. Results were very low, so experiment had to be repeated.

37 deg rotator 7/2/16 4:54 p.m.
Transferred bacterial cells into 2.0 mL labeled microtubes with two separate transfer pipettes. Centrifuged at 13000 rpm for 1 minute. Supernatant was removed in the sinke. The procedure was performed a total of 3 times. The tubes containing only the pellets were placed in rotor adapters.
These rotor adapters were placed in the QIACube and eluted with 50uL elution buffer.
5bii. Gel Filtration
Because of the limiting capacity of the spin columns, samples were combined together in the following: 6ab, 6cd, 7ab, 7cd. Additionally, due to prior preparation of the same plasmid in two other microtubes, a gel filtration was performed with each one as well for a total of 6 separate gel filtrations.
Using GSO Gel prepared by Cyrillus, 850ul of gel were spinned in a column at 2000rpm for 2 mins. 100ul of sample was added to each column which was placed in a new tube and centrifuged at 2000rpm for 2 mins.
The final products were all pooled together as follows: 6a-d, 7a-d, and the combination of the two other microtubes prepared last week.
5biii. Take 3 DNA Quantification
Using the Take 3, 2 uls of each sample were placed for quantification.
Concentrations (ng/uL):
6. imc229j3.1 pWH1266 ori-pSB1C3 – 52.2567
7. BS57h4.1 tetR-PtetA-tetM-pUC57-mini – 22.427
Old 229G2 tet – 5.842
Because of repeatedly low obtained concentrations of 7, it may be that the plasmid does not perform well with filtration. Future experiments regarding this plasmid should take note of this fact.
