We used Gel Electrophoresis to test whether we have the DNA we wanted. As we already know, the ''ara'' gene is about 300bps. We used hundred bp DNA ladder as a guidance for our bands. The two bands produced were from two separate ''ara'' cultures and they indeed show the bands in the same region, i.e. 300bps.
