Lab & HAPPY LUNA NEW YEAR!!!



Today in Biotech class, we started our new lab cutting DNA( Lambda) with Hind III, which is a restriction endonucleas. Because it's a micro-molecule experiment, the finished reaction is only 30 ul, a tiny drop of liquid, but it was from four ingredients! It takes two hours to work, so we'll have the result on Tuesday. Today is just the begin of this lab, cuz in the next several days we'll have to use some special methods to "see" the result. We are expecting that the Lambda DNA has been cut into eight fragments by the enzyme. In order to see if it works, we'll need a special tool, and it will not be a microscope because DNA is too small that can't be seen under any microscope. Mr.C told us that we'll use agarose gel to separate the fragments by size from the biggest to the smallest. Then...=_= that's all I know just for now, we'll see what happen in next week.
Three days weekend! Monday is the President Day, that's why.
However, I have an eassy and the French poject need to be finish in this weekend.
By the way, Sunday is Luna New Year,
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
( I wise that the Luna New Year could be on Tuesday so then I could have four days off. Yeah, I know I'm too greedy:P)
