Advice for ligation

... Invitrogen instructions: 0.12uM cut vector (300ng/uL), 2uL of ligase buffer 10x, 18uL of ddH2O, and 1 unit of Ligase (0.1uL) (*due to the glycerol viscosity it is probably more around 0.25uL). I've left it for 4 hours and done another for over night... both I've put in a rack that I set over ice, ...

Re: Pond Scum

... drop of clear Kayro syrup and mingle it with the drop of pond water, then place your cover glass or slip on the slide, this syrup increases the viscosity of the water without harming the protozoa right away and slowing down the movements of some of the faster ciliates and flagellates that you ...

Re: A few questions about DNA and isolation/viscosity!

This pertains mostly to separations by phenol extraction. The ribose ring of RNA is susceptible to elimination/hydroysis reactions at high pH. The deoxyribose ring of DNA is much more stable toward base compared to RNA. At pHs above 7, both RNA and DNA partition into the aqueos phase of a phenol ext...
