The PCR setting that was used:
 * 1) 95 C: 5 min.
 * 2) 95 C: 30 sec.
 * 3) 51 C: 30 sec.
 * 4) 72 C: 1.5 min.
 * 5) 72 C: 10 min.
 * 4 C: hold

Numbers 2-4 were repeated 32 times.

The Concentrations of the templates were:
 * PXG-10: 475 ng/uL
 * MG1655: 2.8 ng/uL

The Concentrations of the cloned genes were: EGFP: -1.47 ng/uL MicF: 16.78 ng/uL MicA: 7.60 ng/uL GadX: 43.69 ng/uL
 * Hfq: 44.70 ng/uL
