Isolating Plamid, Nanodrop and Preparations for DNA Sequencing
Isolated plasmid from LuxOD47E overnight cultures using Sigma miniprep kit, lot # 035K6068, eluting in ddH2O. Learned how to use Nanodrop Spectrophotometer to determine the concentration of the DNA. Prepared DNA for DNA sequecning. The optimal concentration of DNA for DNA sequencing is 100 ng/ 1 kb. Our gene is 1362 base pairs and the concentration is 292.3 ng/uL, so we sent down 1.8 uL of DNA with 7.2 uL ddH2O.

Marketing and Outreach for June 9th 2009
Today, I contacted some Oil and Gas companies via e-mail and I will make follow up phone calls soon.
I also signed up for second life ™, which would be our biggest part of our outreach aspect of our project. I wanted to familiarize myself with the online virtual world so I can get more ideas on how to hold the ethics conference in second life ™

Do Not Group Deed Objects
Lost my entire PCR machine script included today and will have to start over since no one is able to access anything within the object. I have old versions of the scripts I was using so hopefully I will be able to update them quickly and integrate all scripts together since it is really not practical and I will also need to add more types of DNA. This will most likely involve:
- Adding a variable to keep track of what type of DNA has been added so that the correct product may be given to the avatar later
- Making the different products and putting them into the machine’s inventory
- Adding the names of the different types of DNA to a list that will be searched through to see what exists and what doesn’t

Plasmid Isolation (miniprep)
The pBluescript were isolated from TOP10 cells by using Sigma's GenElute plasmid Miniprep kit (sigma). The pBluescript is needed to verify more competent cells in the future.

Introduction to Second Life
I signed up in Second Life today. My avatar's name is Synthiya Shieldmaiden. I explored our island, sat on pretty much anything that was shaking or moving. I also met my Second Life team members and spoke to them using the local chat box. I also enjoyed flying in Second Life.
After couple horus of exploring, I completed an online survey to raise Lynden dollars for the Second Life team.

LuxOD47A plasmid isolation and preparation for sequencing
Plasmid isolation of competent LuxOD47A BBk cells
Purpose: to isolate plasmids from LuxOD47A cells that were cultured over the weekend
Protocol: refer to protocol page.
Concentration measurement of isolated plasmids
Purpose: to measure the concentration of the isolated plasmids with the Nanodrop spectrophotometer
Protocol: refer to protocol page.
Preparation of LuxOD47A in TOPO for sequencing
Protocol: refer to protocol page. 500 ng of DNA were inserted into the tube sent down for sequencing.
