=Spring Workshop=
Almost the whole team left for the iGEM spring workshop in Évry, Paris. The drive for some of us was a bit laborious (traffic jams at the middle of the night/closed roads etc.), and others actually watched the World Cup soccer match... But in the end we all arrived at the hotel in Évry little before 2 AM, Saturday morning, and got some well deserved sleep.

Lab work

BioBrick stocks

Today we performed a Qiagen Mini-prep plasmid isolation of the vectors we grew overnight. We saved 3 mL of the bacterial cells to make -80 °C stocks.

The following plasmid concentrations were obtained:

BioBrick Concentration (ng/μL)
pSB3T5 266.0
pSB1T3 414.0
pSB1C3 284.7
pSB3C5 329.3
pSB1K3 270.1
pSB1A3 271.9
I13401 232.1

Characterization of Anderson RBS sequences

Next to that we also started digesting the first parts we will be characterizing.

Strain Characterization

By Hugo

I prepared the cell bank according to the following procedure:

  • Spin 5 ml of the overnight culture
  • Add 500 ul of LB medium
  • Add 500 ul of 80% glycerol
  • Store the tube at -80ºC

Now, we have a cell bank ready to be used!!!

Spring Workshop

Almost the whole team left for the iGEM spring workshop in Évry, Paris. The drive for some of us was a bit laborious (traffic jams at the middle of the night/closed roads etc.), and others actually watched the World Cup soccer match... But in the end we all arrived at the hotel in Évry little before 2 AM, Saturday morning, and got some well deserved sleep.
