August 15

CPCR of Gibson pNT002 and pNT003
Miniprep J23119 and I732019 to construct LacZ producer
GCMS of bisphenol A dissolved in methanol

Results

CPCR gels showed 200 bp bands, indicating self-ligation of all colonies picked.
GCMS results show no correct mass spectrometry peaks.

August 16

Electrospray bisphenol A dissolved in methanol
Attempt to standard assemble constitutively expressed LacZ and transform into XL10 gold. However, there was no good way to select out the lacZ insert (I732019) from the backbone it was cut out of, as they are the same length.

Results

Electrospray results show correct mass spectrometry peaks

August 17

Borrowed HindIII from Nate to be able to gel extract lacZ from the now smaller backbone pieces
Transformed psB1C3 into top10 cells

Results

The lacZ plated on LB-amp X-gal had about 520 colonies. The negative control had around 700 colonies. None of the colonies were blue, likely indicating that there was no functioning lacZ. Some were sent off for sequencing.
