9:00 A – 6:50P, 10:10P – 11:30P

  • Intro to STORM 2 imaging with Colenso and Yari
  • no nuclei on sample.  🙁
  • Imaging en inv locus on Zeiss 700, tou-flu and en bio in yw 4 look pretty good.  One good data stack taken for analysis.
  • Test gel of DNA nicked translation gives no bands, despite 200-500 ng/uL spec reading.  Too large / not digested?  even extensive running doesn’t produce visible bands.   Try PCR confirmation first.
  • labels for second round embedding all lost in ethanol — should have written down color code, or write underneath label.
  • samples difficult to extract in resin from complete-volume exchange tubes.  pippetting works better than removing mesh.  Should try with paint brush — need to buy brushes.
  • got GPU code from Fang, need to try install and run on Tuck.
