Carol had taken out the DNA from the freezer already so I didn't need to wait for them to defrost. This week I preformed all of my work on ice to prevent any of the DNA and mix from evaporating from the dish. The very same as last week, I made sure that all of the samples were mixed properly by flicking them and spinning them on a centrifuge machine. I then pipetted 2 micro-liters of DNA into 28 wells on the dish. Once I completed this I made up the master mix and then pipetted 2 micro-liters of it into each hole. After, I set up the geno-typing machine that would be used to analyse the DNA. While I waited for the machine to finish analysing the DNA I read some more tutorials about different discoveries made in the genetic field.
After lunch I looked at the results produced by the geno-typing machine. Afterwards, I took the next 28 samples and prepared them for geno-typing just as I did earlier. I then set up the machine again to analyse the DNA and Carol would show me the results next week.
