General notes

Key preparation:

  • blah

Scheme: each pair of students will prepare aptamer-encoding DNA, then each one (?) will do an IVT, and each will do her/his own column selection. Partners will do the same ratio of 6-5:8-12 and vary column washes, or perhaps vice-versa. (Maybe latter makes more sense for balanced use of materials?)

Day 1: Amplify aptamer-encoding DNA

Materials required:
