Is it possible to get intense signal using Cy3 filters for FAM-labeled probes?

My colleague and I did FISH using a FAM-labeled probe. We observed signals using FITC filters. However, when we tried to use the Cy3 filter, we could see intense and distinct signals not observed...

Why do I get the cloned insert size rather than the plasmid size when I gel analyze after maxiprep?

I did maxiprep plasmid/BAC isolation. When I did gel analyze, I was expecting for the classical two bands for the supercoiled and linear plasmids. Instead, I got real intense bands that...

How can I estimate the GC content of a genome?

Is there any method that I can use on genomic DNA to estimate the GC content of a particular plant species' genome? I was wondering whether High Resolution Melt (HRM) could do it.

Can anyone help me with my ITS amplification?

Anyone working with the amplification of ITS1-5.8S-ITS2, how may bands do you usually get using primers that span from the 3'-end of 18S and the 5'-end of 26S? I got 2 bands from my sample and...
