CA6 PCR #2 7/10/19 - testing BAS

E1 E2 E3 E4 E5 E6 E7 - test

Procedure

Samples E1 E2 E3 E4 E5 E6 E7 were used in this PCR (polimerase chain reaction) reaction

First A Master Mix of water, 2x mytaq mix, CA6.38R Primer (concentration: 10 micromolar), CA6.38L Primer (concentration: 10 micromolar)

Component Volume for 14 reactions(+5% error)
Water 132.3 micoleters
2x mytaq mix 183.75 micoleters
CA6.38R Primer (concentration: 10 micromolar) 14.7 micoleters
CA6.38L Primer (concentration: 10 micromolar) 14.7 micoleters
BAS (Borine Serum Albumin) 1 microliter

added BAS to mix BAS stops certain things that caninhibit PCRs

24 micoleters of this master mix was added to 14 tubes For the 2 negative controls 12.5 micoleters water and 12.5 micoleters mytaq mix were added there was no positive control was available

1 microleter of the DNA samples was added to the coresponding tube

The first tube was placed into a thermomixer with the following settings

Step Temperature Duration cycles
1 92°C 3:00 1
2 92°C 0:30 35
3 55°C 1:00 35
4 72°C 0:15 35
5 72°C 2:00 1
6 4°C hold -

the second tube had the cycles increased to 45

Step Temperature Duration cycles
1 92°C 3:00 1
2 92°C 0:30 45
3 55°C 1:00 45
4 72°C 0:15 45
5 72°C 2:00 1
6 4°C hold -

these amplified DNA samples were then tested by making a gel

to create the Gel the following steps were taken

1.5g agarose and 75ml 1X TAE buffer were mixed to make a 2% agarose 75ml gel mix the mix was microwaved and swirled until there were no flakes then 1 microliters Gelgreen was added

the mix was left to cool for 5 minutes then poured into the gel mold the gel was left to harden for 30 minutes

once hardened enough Used TAE buffer was poured into the gel box to cover the mold

5 microliter aliquots of DNA samples E1 E2 E3 E4 E5 E6 E7 and the two controls were made 1 microliter of 5x loading dye was added to each

First 3 microliters of the HyperLadder 100bp was added to the first well of the mold then the DNA samples were each added to the wells in the following order

Ladder E1 E2 E3 Negative Control E4 E5 E6 E7
Ladder E1 E2 E3 Negative Control E4 E5 E6 E7

The voltage was set to 100V and run for 60 minutes

This is the resulting Gel
