              Conclusions: The commercial cells were far more successful than our old cells. I used two colonies, which may not end up perfect, so I’ve stored the plate
+
              in a 4C cooler. Tomorrow, I’ll store the cells and/or miniprep and possibly make glycerol stocks of them, though I don’t have primers to sequence or PCR
+
              them beyond that.
