Calculations
[math]\displaystyle{ ratio \times \frac{insert \rm length}{vector \rm length} \times vector \rm mass = insert \rm mass (ng) }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ 3 \times \frac{1200}{2400} \times = ng }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ 1uL \rm vector\times\frac{ng \rm vector}{1uL vector}\times\frac{ng \rm insert}{ng \rm vector}\times\frac{uL \rm insert}{x ng \rm insert} = }[/math]

  • Where x = concentration of insert
  • gel extraction failed. No ligations conducted.
