Nothing seems more pathetic than being in a lab on a Sunday night....

PCR is now officially finished on the Re-do's and I have to say, that 11 of the 13 worked! I must have messed up something really small on the first time. But the other two probably didn't have enough DNA in them to begin with. But a total of 48 out of 50 samples is pretty good!

      I'm really proud.

Today I basically condensed 3 days of work into about 5 hours. I made the gel, electrophoresed the samples and took the spiffy UV pictures.

Tomorrow is officially shipping day, and I think it might also be my last day in the lab!
But what this means is working on the actual data and my freaking paper. Ugh. This was a pretty ambitious project, I'm realizing now. I'm pretty sure I can do this though.

Pictures from today, including one of me in the headgear that I have to wear while I'm taking the UV pictures.
