Overview Experiments

For our project, we needed to do a lot of experiments. At first, it was a bit difficult to find some well working methods, but after a while of researching we were finally able to get very good results.

We did two assays [1] [2] to prove the occurence of pectin; we were able to crack pollen and to clone Escherichia coli.

After cracking the pollen, we were capable to duplicate the DNA of different pollen by doing a PCR [1] [3] . Afterwards we could "inject" the duplicated DNA into a gelelectrophoresis to show which pollen we used before.

Our team also dealed with searching for DNA sequences saved in the database of NCBI . How to use the program MEGA7 and the database is also mentioned in the Overview.
