Week 4

7/25/2011

Incubate LB chlora for 1 hour
Negative control continued overnight Test Experiment #1- Took 10 µL from i2.9.7 and 10 µL from i2.9.8 and mixed them together.
Then plated all 20 µL onto a chlora plate.
Then we covered it and LED lights in the 37 degrees Celsius incubator and let them grow overnight.

i2.10.1 - FOFR from commercial stock, i2.10.2- negative control, i2.10.3-agar stab being plated on carb plate
Incubation FOFR colonies (3 mL of LB and carb)
Plating mutated CheZ (inoculation)
grew FOFR (fibroblast growth factor receptor) which was on pCMV- SPORT6.1 in E.coli strain DH1OB
grew FOFR (fibroblast growth factor receptor) which was on pCMV- SPORT6.1 in E.coli strain DH1OB
