Hola Maria, | |||
We are also having problems with the spectro-fluorimeter that is available | |||
in our center of research. We can't detect the light output of the | |||
LuxABCDE genes from vibrio fischeri that Cambridge sent us; even the | |||
bioluminescence it is also visible to the naked eye. We tried the | |||
measurements after spin-down several milliliters of the culture (10, 5 and | |||
3 ml) and re-suspending, in order to get cells more concentrated, but it | |||
didn´t work. Please, share us your experience with this issue if you and | |||
Will get better results. | |||
Maybe, we will try to do the measurements with a CCD-camera that is | |||
available at the physics center, but it is a little bit complicated to get | |||
in touch with the responsible person. | |||
The co-transformation of LuxY with LuxABCDE genes has failed, though the | |||
plasmids have different replication origins; we will try to get it again | |||
along this week. | |||
I wanted to ask you, How long the bioluminescence is conserved in your | |||
cultures and Petri-dishes? Do you have any limitation by the temperature | |||
growth conditions? | |||
On the other hand, hopefully we could test LovTAP. It seems that a read | |||
out system (trpL promoter + RFP has been ligated correctly). It will just | |||
depend on the co-transformation success that we have. | |||
Do you have any advice about co-transformations; Martha told me that she | |||
had tried some, working with LovTAP. How was the experience? | |||
About the shipment, we totally respect and understand Dr. Chris position. | |||
BTW the shipment has not arrived yet. | |||
Well, Good luck during these weeks. | |||
Regards, | |||

Asking for advices with co-transformations and bioluminiscence measurementsHola Maria, We are also having problems with the spectro-fluorimeter that is available in our center of research. We can't detect the light output of the LuxABCDE genes from vibrio fischeri that Cambridge sent us; even the bioluminescence it is also visible to the naked eye. We tried the measurements after spin-down several milliliters of the culture (10, 5 and 3 ml) and re-suspending, in order to get cells more concentrated, but it didn´t work. Please, share us your experience with this issue if you and Will get better results. Maybe, we will try to do the measurements with a CCD-camera that is available at the physics center, but it is a little bit complicated to get in touch with the responsible person. The co-transformation of LuxY with LuxABCDE genes has failed, though the plasmids have different replication origins; we will try to get it again along this week. I wanted to ask you, How long the bioluminescence is conserved in your cultures and Petri-dishes? Do you have any limitation by the temperature growth conditions? On the other hand, hopefully we could test LovTAP. It seems that a read out system (trpL promoter + RFP has been ligated correctly). It will just depend on the co-transformation success that we have. Do you have any advice about co-transformations; Martha told me that she had tried some, working with LovTAP. How was the experience?
