= Things we did today =

Practiced getting DNA plasmids off the filter paper

 * Norman and Krystle
 * see experiment for details
 * DNA will be frozen in TE for later transformation
 * BBa_E0040 GFP biobrick (spot 7E on plate 1001)
 * BBa_J04430 IPTG-induced GFP device (spot 4H on plate 1004)
 * BBa_I13522 constitutive GFP device (spot 8A on plate 1002)

Made Spectinomycin/Streptomycin Plates

 * Grace
 * Made 1000X sp stock solution
 * Made 1000X sm stock solution
 * Made BG-11+sp+sm plates
 * Made LB+sp+sm plates
 * Made LB+sp plates

Transformed BioBricks into competent DH5&alpha;

 * Grace

Quote of the Day
"So that's the difference between biochemists and geneticists...
 * Biochemists will be so meticulous and do everything the long way.
 * Geneticists will try to look for a shortest, simplest possible."
