Lab work
Ordered DNA stocks
The DNA from Mr Gene has finally arrived, now we're ready to build some biobricks!
We were so excited; we immediately solved the DNA in water and performed a transformation with 100 ng of the DNA and plated on the LB agar containing the appropriate antibiotic.

Characterization of Anderson RBS sequences
Yesterday's purified PCR product of I13401 and the Anderson RBS Biobricks (J61100, J61101, J61107, J61117 and J61127) were digested:
| # | Digestion reaction | Used Buffer | Needed fragment |
| 1 | μg I13401 + XbaI + PstI | Buffer 2 (BioLabs) | ‘X – I13401 – P’ |
| 2 | μg J61100 + SpeI + PstI | Buffer 2 (BioLabs) | ‘S – J61100 – P’ |
| 3 | μg J61101 + SpeI + PstI | Buffer 2 (BioLabs) | ‘S – J61100 – P’ |
| 4 | μg J61107 + SpeI + PstI | Buffer 2 (BioLabs) | ‘S – J61100 – P’ |
| 5 | μg J61117 + SpeI + PstI | Buffer 2 (BioLabs) | ‘S – J61100 – P’ |
| 6 | μg J61127 + SpeI + PstI | Buffer 2 (BioLabs) | ‘S – J61100 – P’ |
Purification of the digestion products using Roche's PCR Purification Kit and subsequent overnight ligation:
| # | Ligation reaction |
| 1 | 3 μL I10341 + 4 μL J1100 + 1.5 μL pSB1C3 |
| 2 | 3 μL I10341 + 4 μL J1101 + 1.5 μL pSB1C3 |
| 3 | 3 μL I10341 + 4 μL J1107 + 1.5 μL pSB1C3 |
| 4 | 3 μL I10341 + 4 μL J1117 + 1.5 μL pSB1C3 |
| 5 | 3 μL I10341 + 4 μL J1127 + 1.5 μL pSB1C3 |
| 6 | 4 μL J1100 + 1.5 μL pSB3C5 (negative control) |
Emulsifier
Pieter is testing different condition for the emulsifying Assay. To determine the emulsifying activity we set up a calibration curve with SDS. He prepared the following samples:
| # | Hexane (mL) | Tris Buffer pH 8 (mL) | 10% SDS (mL) |
| B | 1 | 1.1 | 0 |
| 100 | 1 | 1 | 0.1 |
| 50 | 1 | 1.05 | 0.05 |
| 25 | 1 | 1.075 | 0.025 |
| 10 | 1 | 1.09 | 0.01 |
| 5 | 1 | 1.095 | 0.005 |
Kampioenen!!!!
Today the Dutch team will play the semi-final of the World Cup! Hear us cheer! Stop sound
