We were confident when we began pipetting because of the simulations that we did before class. We all understood the difference between the first and second stop. Before we began using the actual solutions, we practiced with the micropipettor to find the first and seconds stop. There was no noticeable difference in the amount of liquid in the final reactions. There was no liquid left in the tubes that contained the DNA samples and the PCR reaction mix. We did change our labeling scheme a little. We kept the G12 the same on all the tubes but then we labeled the tubes with patient ID 37106 with the labels 3-1, 3-2, and 3-3. We labeled the tubes with patient ID 54597 with the labels 5-1, 5-2, and 5-3. Fluorimeter Procedure Imaging set-up In the light box, the flourimeter was placed on top of two boxes to prop it up to the height of the camera. A smartphone camera was placed 8 cm away from the light in the flourimeter in a smartphone cradle. The flash was disabled on the camera in order to get a clear picture. The timer was set on the camera for 10 seconds so the light box could be closed and the picture would be taken in darkness. The camera was focused so the picture would be clear. See picture below for complete set up.
