Calibration

Photo of Fluorimeter



  • Distance between the smart phone cradle and drop = 8cm


Solutions Used for Calibration

Calf Thymus DNA solution concentration (microg/mL) Volume of the 2X DNA solution (uL) Volume of the SYBR GREEN I Dye Solution (uL) Final DNA concentration in PicoGreen Assay (ng/mL)
0 80 80 blank
.25 80 80 .125
.5 80 80 .25
1 80 80 .5
2 80 80 1
5 80 80 2.5


Placing Samples onto the Fluorimeter

  • Get Slide, Micropipette and vial of sample
  • Place slide into fluorimeter
  • Take 80 micro liters of sample into micropipette
  • Place 4 drops onto the slide, slide the slide over to where the light hits, don't use the same place twice
  • Make sure the drops form a ball and don't spread around individually


Data Analysis

Representative Images of Samples

[Show an IMAGE where you drew a circle around the droplet with the freehand tool for a sample with no DNA]

[Show an IMAGE where you drew a circle around the droplet with the freehand tool for a sample with DNA (positive signal)]
