  • Transformation of all ligations.
  • We find colonies for all ligations, except for the first one.
  • Photomultiplier adjustements

We decided to go on with our fluorescence measurements using not only the photo camera but also the photomultiplier described in the "Materials and Methods" section on our Homepage.

So, we have to adjust the PMT 814 features. First of all we calibrate this instrument by regulating the output offset to have a 0.00 output in case of photomultiplier in total darkness. Then, we adjust the PMT 814 time constant to 50 ns and its gain to 10^(-3) microA/V.

After that we have to cut the photomultiplier field of view, in order to have it the same size as the microscope's one: we do that by moving the appropiate diaphragms.

Then, we have to adjust the external voltage, a sort of gain which is useful to mantain our output signal below 10 volts as prescribed. As the maximum possible output signal, we take a field of view that contains a fluorescent bacteria population at saturation; then we make it match with a 10.00 volts output by regulating the external gain.
