Microwave Digestion Experiment
- Following protocol outlined online, tested a microwave protocol to hasten digestion period.
- Digested DQ232597 with HindIII. Ran five samples: 5 seconds in micro, 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 10 seconds in and 2 minutes out (four times), water control, water control 10 seconds in microwave and 2 minutes out, 1 hr traditional digest.
- Denatured HindIII at 80 C for 20 minutes, then ran products on a gel.
- Results promising; however, more experimentation needed to confirm validity of this protocol
