Team:TU Delft/7 June 2010 content
From 2010.igem.org
After the relaxing jam session of yesterday, we all head back to the lab/office. Besides planning the trip to Paris for this weekend, we also spend some time on setting up the first transformations. Also new possible sponsors are addressed. We are still on the hunt!
The ordering invoice for the DNA synthesis are signed and on their way to Mr Gene. Of course we added their logo to our webpages igemtudelft.nl and Facebook and Twitter. And all team members have become fans on the network sites.
Lab work
Hugo, Ramon and Pieter made the antibiotic stock solutions. Though it is kinda hard to solubilize C in water. Fortunately we have Hugo, the vortexman, on our team!
Besides transformations Thias is also preparing for PCR amplification of a few biobricks. Esengül explained the mysteries of the magnificant PCR machines. We transformed competent cells with resuspended biobricks. The red color in our epps really looked nice! Hopefully we will see some colonies tomorrow. Wish us luck!
Quotes of the day
(While punching the first hole in the first biobrick plate ever)
Thias: What's in that bottle?
(something goes wrong)
Hugo: SHIT!
