Week 15: September 12 to 17
September 12
WET LAB
We grew the BBa-K381001 in liquid LB + chloramphenicol to then continue with DIRTY MINIPREP in order to extract its plasmids.
- Took out of the fridge 2 petri dishes with transformed bacteria with BBa-K381001
- It was used:
- 9.7µL of chloramphenicol
- and 10mL of liquid LB
- Prepared (+) and (-) controls for each petri dish in falcon tubes
- Each falcon tube of (+) control contains:
- 9.7µL of chloramphenicol/10mL of Liquid LB
- 5mL of liquid LB
- Aliquot of the cultivation
- The negative controls had almost the same content, excluding chloramphenicol
- The 4 falcon tubes were collocated in the incubator until next day

Objetives:
DIRTY MINI PREP
BBa-K381001 part
Cultivation 9/6/2011
1. Appropriately shook the tubes where the cultivations were.
2. In each eppendorf 1.5mL of cultivation (9/6/2011) control (+)
3. In each eppendorf 1.5mL of cultivation (9/6/2011) control (-)
4. Centrifuged 13000rpm, 1 min
5. Supernatant of eppendorf 6 tubes were eliminated
6. Resuspended in 300µL buffer RNasa (P1)
7. Added 300µL of buffer (P2)
8. Mixed by inversion
9. It was kept in room temperature during 5 minutes
10. Added 300µL of buffer (P3)
11. Mixed by inversion
12. Kept in ice during 5 minutes
13. Centrifuged 13000rpm, 10 min
14. Extracted the supernatant and it was deposited in new eppendorf tubes carefully, avoiding to touch the pellets.
15. Added to each tube 1000µL of PCA (Phenol:Chloroform:Isoamyl alcohol)
16. Mixed by inversion
17. Centrifuged 13000rpm, 5 min
18. Transferred 750µL aqueous phase to new tubes properly labeled.
19. Tubes with plasmids and isopropanol were centrifuged 13000rpm, 15 min
20. Then isopropanol was removed
21. Added 500µL EtOH 70% to wash it
22. Mixed by inversion
23. Again centrifuged 13000rpm, 5 min
24. Eliminated EtOH 70% and were dried (air dry technique)
25. Resuspended in 30µL of H20 ultra-pure (it was cold)
26. Tubes were stored in a white box properly labeled
Note: Volumes of 500µL EtOH 70% and 30µL of H20 ultra-pure refer to that specific amount for each tube.
