Background Information

SYBR Green Dye
SYBR Green dye is a fluorescent dye that binds to double-stranded DNA, but will stain single-stranded DNA with lower performance.

Single-Drop Fluorimeter
Fluorimeter is a device that is used to measure the amount fluorescence in a single drop.


How the Fluorescence Technique Works
[In your own words, a summary of the information from page 9 of the worksheet]



Procedure

Smart Phone Camera Settings

  • We used an Iphone 5
    • Flash:None
    • ISO setting:NA
    • White Balance:NA
    • Exposure:NA
    • Saturation:NA
    • Contrast:NA
  • No additional phone used

Calibration

We inserted the Iphone inside a cradle that gave us a right angle view. Afterward we adjusted the height of the phone so that it is as even with the drop.

  • Distance between the smart phone cradle and drop = 3cm


Solutions Used for Calibration [See worksheet page 5]
