ProcedureSmart Phone Camera Settings
[Instructions: If you used an additional phone, describe the other type of smart phone you used and how you adjusted the camera settings, if applicable. If not, delete this part]
[Instructions: Describe how to set up your camera in front of the fluorimeter. Add a PHOTO of this set-up for bonus points.]
[Instructions: See worksheet page 6.]
[Add more rows as needed]
Data AnalysisRepresentative Images of Samples [Instructions: Show an IMAGE where you drew a circle around the droplet with the freehand tool for a sample with no DNA] [Instructions: Show an IMAGE where you drew a circle around the droplet with the freehand tool for a sample with DNA (positive signal)]
Image J Values for All Samples [Instructions: See worksheet page 8. To save time on typing a new Wiki table from scratch, use THIS TOOL to auto-generate a Wiki table: Excel-to-Wiki Converter. Copy the headers and values from the Excel spreadsheet you made, paste them into the form field, click submit, copy the Wiki code that the tool generated, and replace TABLE GOES HERE (below) with your auto-generated code.]
