A researcher is doing PCR to have more of HDR template which will be used further for yeast transformation. He column-cleaned the PCR, eluting in 20 ul of warm elution buffer. He used 2 ul of the 20 ul stock to nanodrop the sample and found the concentration was 60 ng/ul. Find the nanograms of HDR template he had left to use for future work (like yeast transformations)?

Experiment 1: An RT-PCR was run on human cells growing in tissue culture under standard conditions, using the primers described above. A normal PCR was also run on the cells, using the same primers. They were run on an agarose gel shown on the left in the figure (gel 1), in the wells indicated by ‘RT-PCR’ and ‘PCR’. The arrow shows the direction of current in the gel. a) Observe the gel and describe the results for the RT-PCR and PCR (no explanation, just describe). b) Explain why the bands have travelled different distances on the gel.
Our PCR samples already contain loading dye, but sometimes this isn’t the case. If your samples didn’t already contain dye and you wanted to load your PCR sample onto an agarose gel, you’d need to add loading dye to the proper concentration. There is a 6X loading dye available for use; how many µl of this loading dye will you add to 10 µl of your sample so that it is at a 1X working concentration? Show your work.
After you did the amplification by PCR, you run the product on 2% gel. Tell me how did you prepared the gel if the tray is 150 ml? how many milliliters of the TBE and how many grams of the Agarose? Draw a picture (On a paper or on computer) for the gel that you are expecting, the gene that you amplified is approximately 200 bp
What is the size of the PCR product (Hse gene) observed from the gel photo? Which samples display this specific PCR product? What is the detection limit of the PCR of E. coli Hse gene? and also estimate the number of E. coli cells in the unknown sample. (Hes gene) exist in all tubes except in the marker
Explain why a positive control and negative control are included in PCR experiments. Explain the three steps involved in each cycle of polymerase chain reaction.Why is loading dye added to the DNA sample for gel electrophoresis? Explain the function of the following components in a PCR reaction:− Primer, dNTP, MgCl, Taq polymerase, buffer.
Using the table below, what volume from the master mix will be dispensed to each sample tube if the genomic DNA is 1 µL and the Taq polymerase is 0.3 µL?
This is what the LAB FLOW would look like: CULTURE BACTERIA EXTRACT RNA RANDOM HEXAMER REVERSE TRANSCRIPTION OF RNA PCR OF lacZ GENE ELECTROPHORESIS If you wanted to prepare only one PCR reaction, how much of each reagent would you add to the PCR tube? What would be the final primer concentration if 0.5 μl of 10 μM primers were added to a PCR reaction with a final volume of 20 μl?
The process of PCR essentially revolves around three phases. Briefly describe these phases and the events that occur in them. Take note the temperature on which these phases take place.
Recently, I am designing primers specific for Lactobacillus sp. (partial sequence of the 16s rRNA gene) and can get successful amplification on my conventional PCR. Then I am going to quantify by RT-PCR using SyBr Green Reagent in Step One Plus Instrument. By using the same run condition as the conventional PCR, I face the problem that many of my samples got a bad melting curve. Anyone have the same experience as me or suggestion please let me know. Thanks in advance.
You have recently joined the QC team in a milk factory. Your supervisor told you they have routine checking on the several types of bacterial levels, mainly by the dye reduction measure and also the standard plate count. Explain why two different measure are required to be done for the same samples. You suggested to do the PCR measure, but your supervisor banned your idea. Explain why PCR measure is not preferable in this case.
