May
Week 1
Setting up the lab, preparing media, preparing electrocompetent cells, primer design etc.
Week 2
PCR of Cry3Aa from Bacillus thuringiensis var. tenebrionis and Cry1Ab from Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner 1915. Success with PCR of Cry3Aa, but not Cry1Ab. Creation of vector pBbA7c-Cry3Aa.
Week 3
I tried to transform the created vector pBbA7c-Cry3Aa into Lemo21. No success.
Week 4
A lot of time spent on trying to clone the vector pBbA7c/Cry3Aa into Lemo21. Inconclusive results.

Week 5-8
No chance of working in the lab due to moving of the lab.
July
Week 9
A fresh start with a lot of work for setting up the lab again. I learned the basics of phage work in this and the next week.
Week 10
Continuation of learning how to work with bacteriophages. Mite feeding experiments with fluorophores: Mites do take up fluorophores with their food! But only a small amount of them (~16 %).
Week 11
Feeding experiment with mealworms. Mealworms are easy to feed, easy to dissect and easy to keep. They take up fluorescine when fed with carrots dipped in it.
