29˚C in the
lab today, we had everything open, windows, doors, everything and it was still
too hot. The university was having some form of a sports day and we could hear
all the cheering coming in through the windows. We all kept getting a fright
as the horn sounded throughout the day, creating a nice atmosphere
and keeping us on our toes despite the heat of the
day. (We all looked for an excuse to go down to the phd labs, or the
room at the back where we get our ice from, the rooms with the air
conditioning .... just so we could cool down a bit.)
Today we
finished off the third protein purification, taking the same samples as we went
along to run on a gel.
We
concentrated the third eluted protein the same way we did the Sufu and
it was applied to the GF column.
We really
knew what we were doing today as we have done it so many times this
week, this made things a little more straight forward which was a good
thing because of the heat.
I started working on this in 2014 with Amy and it's great to see the that the work is still going! Well done on getting the biochem society bursery :)
