I did mini-preps of the 5 inoculations from yesterday to check for the insert in the plasmids of the transformed cells. I also took concentrations for each of the 5 samples and they were:
 * Reaction A: 93.0 ng/uL
 * Reaction B: 68.7 ng/uL
 * Reaction C: 116.4 ng/uL
 * Reaction D: 128.6 ng/uL
 * Reaction E: 54.4 ng/uL

I also checked for succesful PCR amplification of the inserts with VR and VF2:


 * Reaction A
 * 1.0 uL template
 * 5.0 uL 10X pfu buffer
 * 0.4 uL Primer F
 * 0.4 uL Primer R
 * 0.4 uL Turbo Polymerase
 * 1.0 uL dNTP
 * 41.8 uL dH2O


 * Reaction B
 * 1.0 uL template
 * 5.0 uL 10X pfu buffer
 * 0.4 uL Primer F
 * 0.4 uL Primer R
 * 0.4 uL Turbo Polymerase
 * 1.0 uL dNTP
 * 41.8 uL dH2O


 * Reaction C
 * 1.0 uL template
 * 5.0 uL 10X pfu buffer
 * 0.4 uL Primer F
 * 0.4 uL Primer R
 * 0.4 uL Turbo Polymerase
 * 1.0 uL dNTP
 * 41.8 uL dH2O


 * Reaction D
 * 1.0 uL template
 * 5.0 uL 10X pfu buffer
 * 0.4 uL Primer F
 * 0.4 uL Primer R
 * 0.4 uL Turbo Polymerase
 * 1.0 uL dNTP
 * 41.8 uL dH2O


 * Reaction E
 * 1.0 uL template
 * 5.0 uL 10X pfu buffer
 * 0.4 uL Primer F
 * 0.4 uL Primer R
 * 0.4 uL Turbo Polymerase
 * 1.0 uL dNTP
 * 41.8 uL dH2O


 * Template Control
 * 5.0 uL 10X pfu buffer
 * 0.4 uL Primer F
 * 0.4 uL Primer R
 * 0.4 uL Turbo Polymerase
 * 1.0 uL dNTP
 * 42.8 uL dH2O

The PCR setting that was used: 95 C: 3 min. 95 C: 30 sec. 51 C: 30 sec. 72 C: 45 sec. 72 C: 5 min. 4 C: hold Numbers 2-4 were repeated 32 times.
