G-418 Calibration
- In 96-well assay plate in well 1 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of water for the control.
- In the same well plate in well 2 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of Geneticin (also known as G-418) with a concentration of 100 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 3 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 50 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 4 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 25 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 5 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 12.5 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 6 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 6.3 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 7 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 3.1 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 8 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 1.56 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 9 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 0.78 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 10 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 0.39 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 11 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 0.2 ul/ml
- In the same well plate in well 12 add 90 ul of yeast BY4735 into the well plate with 10 ul of G-418 with a concentration of 0.1 ul/ml
Calibration Data
From the graphs, we determined that 100 ul/ml was the best option to use for our knock-out experiment because it slowed down the growth of BY4735.
