To-Do

1. Get plasmids from bacterial colonies
2. Run a gel electrophoresis to see if our insertions and transformations worked.

Mini-prep

• These directions were from the MiniPrep Box

1. Resuspend pelleted cells in 250 µl Buffer P1 in microcentrifuge tube
2. Add 250 µl Buffer P2 and invert 4-6 times to mix
3. Add 350 µl Buffer N3 and invert 4-6 times
4. Centrifuge for 10 min at 13000 rpm
5. Apply supernatants into QIAprep spin column by decanting or pipetting
6. Centrifuge at 13krpm for 60 s, and discard flow-through
7. Wash the Spin Column by adding .5 ml Buffer PB and centrifuging at max for 30-60 s, discarding flow through
8. Wash the Spin Column by adding .75 ml Buffer PE and centrifuging at max for 30-60
9. Discard flow through, and centrifuge for 1 min at max to remove residual wash buffer
10. Place the QIAprep column in clean 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube
11. To elute, add 50 µl of Buffer EB (10 mM Tris*Cl, pH 8.5) or add water to center of spin column, letting stand for 1 min, and centrifuge for 1 min
