- | ==Discussion==
| + | |
- | No bands were found in any of the lanes. Yesterday, a faint band was found when the melting temperature was set at 65°C but today no band is found in lane 3 and lane 7. This makes finding the cause for no amplification even difficult. We would still be looking into it and would be changing other parameters.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | ==Conclusion==
| + | |
- | The PCR reaction failed as there is no amplification found in any of the reactions.

- | ==Aims==
| + | |
- | The aim of this experiment is to run gel electrophoresis for the extracted and linearized plasmid pSB1C3 fragment which were amplified at 4 different melting temperatures by 4 separate PCR reactions and to put Ethidium Bromoide (EtBr) in the agarose gel instead of safeview die so as to get better resolution and brighter bands.
