In today's lab, Trevon and I prepared for a transformation we are going to run on D. rad next Friday and Saturday. However, a more thorough update will come next week when we have completed it.

Lab 10/19/19
Today's lab was fairly short. April had me look at D. rad and D. pima under the microscope using a hemocytometer slide. We usually stain the cells but today we did not because April just wanted to take a look at them. However, next week we are going to actually count them once we have conducted our assay's. Below is an image of what a hemocytometer slide looks like. The cells on the slide are D. rad.

Today, I assisted Shawn with his project which has to do with V. fischeri. We made twelve serial dilutions consisting of algae and lysade and then ran a standard curve with a 96 well plate. In hopes to see how V. fischeri luminescence is effected.

In today's lab, I made 50mL of Tris HCl buffer in preparation for the assay we are going to run on Friday. I also made two more 1:1000 dilutions. Other than that today's lab was quite fast.
