(did what? fill in your answer) When we unplugged the white wire that connects (part 6) to (part 2), the machine ... (did what? fill in your answer) Test Run (Write the date you first tested Open PCR and your experience(s) with the machine) Protocols The purpose of protocol planning Protocol planning is important for many reasons. A few of which are elementary. Critical planning is put in place as the backbone that one will build upon. In other words it is an outline of what should be done in things like a study or experiment or even simple things like how to label test strips. Without protocol planning experiments have too many variables and it is much easier to make a mistake. Performing a study without protocol planning is like playing soccer without the rules. i.e. Protocol planning in this analogy would be the rules. In this lab we discussed the protocol for labeling test tubes along with the protocol of how to use the open PCR equipment. Protocol planning is of the utmost importance especially in a lab or while doing a study.

PCR Reaction Mix What is in the PCR reaction mix? DNA/ primer mix What is in the DNA/ primer mix? Research and Development PCR - The Underlying Technology (Add a write-up, essay-style, organized into paragrpahs with descriptive headers, based on the Q&A's from Section three of your worksheet) (BONUS points: Use a program like Powerpoint, Word, Illustrator, Microsoft Paint, etc. to illustrate how primers bind to the cancer DNA template, and how Taq polymerases amplify the DNA. Screen-captures from the PCR video/ tutorial might be useful. Be sure to credit the sources if you borrow images.)
