Method from primary and secondary reagents

  1. Scrape a colony with a sterile pipette tip and resuspend in 50ul of milliQ water.
  2. Take 3ul of resuspension and make an index plate.
  3. Take 30ul aliquot and boil at 95degrees C for 10 minutes
  4. Use 10ul of resultant supernatant as template in PCR reaction:
  • 10ul supernatant
  • 1ul forward primer
  • 1ul reverse primer
  • 12 ul GoTaq
  1. Use a PCR machine with the following cycles:
  • 95C 10min
  • (92C 1 min 54C 1min 72C 1min) X 30
  • 72C 10min
  • 4C hold.
  1. Run the PCR products on a gel.
