Test to ensure all of our restriction enzymes are still active.  Lane 1: ladder; lane 2: cut with Eco RI; lane 3: cut with XbaI; lane 4: standard uncut DNA fragment for lanes 2 and 3; lane 5: cut with SpeI; lane 6: cut with PstI; lane 7: standard uncut DNA fragment for lanes 5 and 6.  There is an apparent decrease in size from standard DNA fragments to the digested samples.  In the digest lanes there is also a dim band fairly far down the gel corresponding to the small end piece that is the other product of digestion.
