Week 10: August 8 to 13

August 8

WET LAB

Place: INDICASAT
Work Session #36 (morning)
Transformation of Competents Cells with pSB1A3, for ensure that our creation of competents cells work.

OBJECTIVE: Preparation of culture medium. 1. JM 109 strain used for cloning plasmids and growth. This is a commercial strain that comes in a kit, were planted in a solid LB medium and then treated to make them competent.

WET LAB

Place: INDICASAT
Work Session #37 (morning)
The Transformation works!!! Preparation of 4 falcons tube with trasnformed cells (for growth). (Objetives or Title):

OBJECTIVE: Creating Competent Cells. 1. Prepare the three buffers to be used. B1 100 mL 100 mM MgCl2 B2 100 mL 100 mM CaCl2 100mL () () () = 11.098g (100x10-3) = 0.1006 g 100mL () () () = 9.5211g (100x10-3) = 0.1047 g 2. Prepare a stock solution for the buffer (100mL of 1M solution) C1V1 = c2v2


V1 = 10mL 100mL to accommodate up 3. This solution was filtered using a syringe and special filter, everything worked within the extraction chamber. 4. From the stock solution of B1 were prepared 50 mL of 1M solution. C1V1 = c2v2



V1 = 5mL to 50mL with water accommodate up sterilazed 5. To this solution were used falcon tubes and sterile water. 6. All solutions were kept on ice. 7. Centrifugation of the culture. 4000 rpm for 16 min. 8. The supernatant was removed and discarded in chlorine. 9. Add 1 mL of the pellet and resuspended MgCl2, expect 20 minutes and centrifuged again this time for 10 min. 10. For the B2 solution was prepared 50mL 85mm from its stock solution.

V1 = 4.25 mL to 50 mL volumetric flask with sterile water until

11. Add 20 ml of CaCl 2 and left incubating for 20 min. 12. Centrifugation was carried 13. We added in a 1000 ml eppendorf tube Buffer 3 which have: • 850 L of Buffer???? • 150 uL glycerol molecular • be kept on ice

August 10

Work Session #38 (morning)
Place: INDICASAT Project Design Group: session of selection & analisys of the Gatech and Bristol Biobricks models and funtioning. We started to study the possibility of use the CspA promoter to improve gene expression under cold shock stress.
Human Practice: preparation of concepts and definitions to the outreach campaign.

WET LAB

Work Session #39 (morning)
Minipred of our Transformed Cells.
(Objetives or Title): --ESCRIBIR Y MEJORAR LAB---
Work Session #40 (afternoon)
--ESCRIBIR--
Finishing Miniprep, preparation of Plasmid for electrophoresis. Left running the Electrophoresis.

August 11

WET LAB

Work Session # (Objetives or Title): --ESCRIBIR Y MEJORAR LAB--

Human Practice

Preparation of brochures for Outreach. Preparation of the slides regarding to the presentation for Outreach. Mindstorm about SynBio definitions & implications.

August 12

WET LAB

Work Session # (Objetives or Title):


Human Practices
We were studying about the pros and cons of the SynBio and the safety regulations (for example the Synthetic Biology Report of the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues) for explain the risks and the safety to the people.
