Team:Beijing HDFLS High/Human

Today is a big day for our iGEM team. We visited the Chinese Academy of Sciences Key Laboratory of Plant Molecular Physiology. At first, we met professor Qi Xiaoquan. He analyzed our project with us and give us some helpful suggestions. Then, a Postdoctoral called John Hugh Snyder who is working at here brought us to laboratories and introduced experimental instruments to us. We have learned how to use experimental instruments.It have a lot of good effects on doing experiments later. It broaden our horizons and experience something I'd never experience before. We were very appreciate to them.

Today is May 18th we took on the laboratory curiosity, excitement and a little nervous for the first time to go out to do the experiment. Collections starting at 12:30 in the school Life Science Research Center of Agricultural University to Xiaojiahe .We were divided into four groups each of three individuals along with four graduate students began to do experiments. We do experiments are simple, the first is the plasmid, the rush started with a pipette plus get more drugs than that gets less, still trembling. Although the video saw many times but always imagined you different. After completion mention plasmid then do we measure the concentration of enzyme, ran glue. Our group of fairly successful experiment, you can clearly see the results, we have done after finish plastic recycling. Although we set the slowest but we do not have to jump very serious step, the next time I am sure many will be proficient. For the first time into the laboratory is still very excited, everything is still new, and sometimes not always concerned about the experiment, I felt really doing is doing such a thing. In fact, there is another novelty habit of the day; we will eventually have to make sense of everything, as IGEM leaving a full, no regrets footprint.
