This week was pretty hectic working on our SSTEM projects as
well as our final draft. I tried running some more gels this week in hopes of
seeing some DNA from my newest extractions. My gel still did not show any DNA
from under the UV lighting. In my presentation I felt a bit afraid of showing
gels without polymorphic banding, but my mentors/SSTEM scholars reassured me
that it was not a waste. Through my failure of not extracting DNA from the
cholla spines actually proved those protocols I used were not effective and to
avoid using the same steps next time.
One of my gels from this past week that showed I had not yielded any DNA from my extractions. In my next post I hope to have some polymorphic banding.
