This week I have been learning and practicing to gel. I used my results and calculated the amount of solution and amount of agarose I need. I add a very toxic chemical known as Ethidium Bromide and heat up the solution. The solution then turns into a gel. I pour it into the gel tray and add 12 mL of the loading buffer. I will be working on reading the gels and taking pictures of the bands soon!
Success: Creating the solution
Challenge: Pipetting the loading buffer
Question: What does the loading buffer do?
