10 October 2016 0 5K Report

I used barcoded primers to amplify 16s rRNA, however, no amplify in my gel with amplification just for positive control, I hope to know main reason for this.

best wishes

Does anyone know what might be causing the smeared bands on my western blot?

I got these smeared bands quite often lately. We typically run the gel at 140V with a 10-12% gel and do a wet transfer at 220 mA for 1.5 hr in cold room. We also noticed some dirty spots/dots (see...

I'm optimizing a tetra-ARMS PCR protocol with amplicon sizes: 165bp, 123bp and 93bp. Why, in the gel, only 165bp is visible while I'm expecting all 3?

It's an end-point PCR protocol. I'm using 1.5% agarose gel with SyBR Safe dye and TBE as a running buffer, visualization on BioRad XR+ system. I was primarily thinking of primer efficiency,...
