InterLab

We applied for the flow cytometry through the manager teacher Ren Xiaoyue. She also tutored us the basic operation and the preparation of our samples. We prepared the samples by ourselves.

Hydrogenase Section

Clone Design: Sun Yilin, Chen Yifan, Nie Yan, LiuYi

In this part Nie Yan provided us with the original bacteria of PirLC to make the component cell and the transformed PirLC with the plasmid backbone.The molecular cloning in this section was done in Nie Yan’s Lab, SIAIS. The help of Nie Yan was involved in the the beginning, but the principle is that all of the experiments are done by ourselves.

Sun Yilin provided us with the tutorials of Snapgene and primer design.

Hydrogen Assay: LiuYi, Ba Fang, Mi Qixi, Ding Zetao

Mi Qixi is a PI from School of Physical Science and Technology. Ding Zetao is his Ph.D student. In the hydrogen production assay, they provided us with the instrument/apparatus he used for hydrogen production assay in his lab. He trained for using the apparatus and most of the experiments were conducted by us.

Biofilm Section

An Bolin is the leading graduate instructor/advisor in this section. He provided basic cloning training (PCR, restriction, ligation, Gibson, electrophoresis, Colony PCR, blast) at the beginning of the cloning of his-CsgA-SpyCatcher-his, the purification of proteins at the subsection of Expression and Purification of mCherry-SpyTag, and consult throughout the summer and fall. In addition, all florescent microscope experiments were conducted with the supervision of An Bolin.

TEM is conducted with the help of Wang Xinyu. However, the preparation of the samples were done by ourselves.

Nano material Section

Pu Jiahua and Wang Xinyu are two graduate instructors/advisors in the QD section. Pu provided guidance on our experiments including the synthesis of CdSe QDs and CdS NRs and UV-Vis spectrometer characterization. Wang helped in the synthesis of HS-NTA synthesis, TEM characterization and PL spectrometer characterization.
