Work Done

  • A. Ann, Bryce, and I had a short meeting to discuss about purchasing NAs.
  • B. Pseudomonas putida KT2440 antibioic tolerence

Procedure: Please refer back to the protocols under Notebook

  • The protocol is posted and titled as "Pseudomonas putida KT2440 antibioic tolerence".
  • Stock solutions were made in Lin LAB and transported to iGEM LAB space in ERB.
  • We placed the falcon tubes with Pseudomonas putida KT2440 + antibiotics in the incubator in ERB (30C).

Note: We checked the temperature of the freezer in one of the labs in ERB and determined that it's -20C (top). Also, we brought some supplies from Lin LAB (falcon tubes & pipette tips) and made a list. The list is posted on the wall of one of the rooms in ERB so we can keep track of things that were taken from Lin LAB.

Other: The antibiotic stocks (Kan & Tet) made are now stored in iGEM box which can be found in -80C freezer (Lin LAB).
