OUR TEAMLAB 1 WRITE-UP(Please finish by 11/7/2012) Initial Machine TestingThe Original Design The open PCR is a device that enables the splitting of DNA. It is run through many cycles of heating and cooling that enables the splitting and recombination with polomers. It connects to a computer program to run the cycles. The temperature change is controled by the heating lid and than the information is fed to the LED screen. The heating lid heats tubes that are held in the heat tube holder to the appropriate temperature and then cools them as needed in each cycle. Experimenting With the Connections When we unplugged part (part 3) from (part 6), the machine ...

(Add your work from Week 3, Part 2 here)
Research and DevelopmentSpecific Cancer Marker Detection - The Underlying Technology (Add a write-up of the information discussed in Week 3's class) (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 OpenPCR tutorial might be useful. Be sure to credit the source if you borrow images.)
Results(Your group will add the results of your Fluorimeter measurements from Week 4 here)
