Extraction of the DNA

  • Use of Promega's protocol for the extraction of: gel n°1 --> 4 : (D100 --> D110 cl-1 ES))
  • Use of Qiagen's protocol for the extraction of: gel n°5 --> 8 : (D110 cl-2 ES --> D120))
  • Test of the succeed of the extraction by electrophoresis on 2µl of the parts extracted.


Determination of DNA concentration by spectrophotometry

conditions: 2µl of the DNA extracted 98µl of pure water

  • Reading against the adaptated blank (2µl of the elution's buffer / 98µl of pure water)
  • List of the results :

-D100 --> D110 cl-1 ES : Absorbance ~20-50µg/ml ; DO 260/280 = 1,5 ; DO 260/230 = 0,0-0.20

-D110 cl-2 ES --> D120 : Absorbance ~0-10µg/ml

Determination of DNA concentration by electrophoresis

  • to check for the samples from Qiagen's protocol, if the absence of detection of absorbance, is due to a problem of reading or a problem during the extraction, we realise an electrophoresis.


==> conclusion : we don't succeed to detect DNA by spectrophometry or electrophoresis for the samples produced by Qiagen's protocol.


==> we decide to repeat all the samples from the beginning, so we culture O/N at 37°c all the strains usefull for the experiments


Culture

MiniPreps

  • Use of Promega's protocol on all the clones cultivated on the 24th.
  • Preparation of 50µl of minipreps in simple.
