august 8 2011
Water samples had some amplification in two of the samples alomng the same places we have been seeing peaks up to this point. a picture of the melt curve can be seen
HERE. set up qPCR run consisting of six 20 ul samples that are currently in the 4 degree fridge.
August 4 2011
Amplification and melt curve data from yesterdays run are below. Going to run just primers and water to see oif we still get a curve. Set up 4 qPCR samples with just water and put them on a tray in the 4 degree fridge.

September 23 2009
Set up PCR of spot fan 3 with 10x, 100x and 1000x dilutions, everything same as previous runs.
September 22 2009
Heated spot fan samples at 95 C for 20 min spun in 4C for 15 and put supernatant in new container. put samples through nanodrop, results below (ignore any second duplicate)
September 21 2009
Ran gel of diluted DNA got some results going to think about what to try next.
From right to left Spot fan 2 diluted 10x, 100x, 1000x, control, control, control
September 19 2009
Did some computer editing work. Set up a PCR runs of spot fan 2, serially diluted 10, 100 and 1000 times and EUK a/b primers. When diluting I used 3 ul of DNA and 27 ul of PCR H2O, in retrospect I only need 2 ul of DNA, so I could have gotten away with much smaller amounts. other than that the run is the same as the last couple of runs, but hopefully we will get some useable results this time.
September 18 2009
Did some editing of spreadsheets and updating the power point. ran gel of LABY primer dea fan and got similar results. Apparently the same sort of thing was happening a year ago when sea fan was being worked with here.
From right to left: spot fan 2, 3, 9, 10 and control
September 16 2009
Did some spreadsheet updating finding the primers used in trout experiment. Set up new PCR of sea fan DNA with spot fan samples 2, 3, 9, 10, this time using LABY primer, Used 25 ul of master mix, 21 H2O, 1 of primer and 2 DNA except for the negative control (which I remembered this time:) that had an additional 2 ul of H2O.
Parameters of PCR run:
94 for 30
50 for 30
72 for 90
Repeated 39 times
edited spreadsheet.
September 15 2009
Compiled charts into single power point.
September 14 2009
Ran gel of remaining sea fan DNA and got more smears, ran pure DNA and got nothing. Probably going to have to do this over from scratch.
From left to right: spot fan 2,3, 9,10,11, 12, 13, 14, 15, control fan 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

September 8 2009
Added 25 Tw 1052 to 500 mil media that was prepared on the 3rd. added fresh media to older stock. Ts are at 104000
September 4 2009
Set up media for TW 1052 using the same method as for the TS except added 6 mg of sodium meta silcate. TSs still growing but slowing down at 106667 per mil.
September 3 2009
the TWs are still steady and the TSs are starting to level of, today they were at 104533. Finished analyzing Macs data.
september 2 2009
The TW 1052 remained constant but the Ts went up to 103200 per mil. Basically finished enterinig Macs data, have a little analysis left to do.
September 1 2009
Algae counts were basically identical to yesterday, I'll count for two more days before deciding if this is the max. Also entered a bunch of data for Mac, will probably finish it off tomorrow.
August 31 2009
The TS and TW 1052 more then doubled their populations over the weekend with populations of 100000 and 71000 per mil respectively. On a saddr note the tw1336 is pretty much extinct. today's pH was 7.16.
August 28 2009
Took 25 mils from the Terta Selmis separated on 8/4 and added them to the freshly autoclaved 500 mills of media. Also added 25 mills of fresh media to the older flask. the pH is 6.9. the counts of the algae are as follows (corrected for dilution) the TW 1052 are still hovering around 48000 a mil while the TS jumped up to 856000.
August 26 2009
Made media for Tetra selmi. used .5 liters of fiultered sea water. Instuctions on the bottles of nutrieants called for 10 mils per 20 gallons and half a liter is .132806 gallons so I used .5*.132806 mils of the two soulutions which came to 66 ul. The algea counts corrected for dilution are as follows TS: 53867 TW 1052 48000 and TW 1336 10000 per mil. will see tommaroow if they continue to go down. the ph was 7.1.
August 25 2009
The observation I made yesterday about the water temp and pH seems to be correct, I made sure to let the mater get to room temp today and got a reading very similar to yesterday, 7.4. the count for the TS is 109867 per mil, tW 1052 58700 and the TW 1336 is at 44300.
August 24 2009
Started count of algae separated out on 8/17. Corrected for dilution I got the following: TW 1336 41800 per mil TS 82667.TW 1052 53400 per mil. The pH for the CO2 tank read 7.5 today, this might be because I made sure to let the sample get to room temp, I will do the same for the rest of this week to make sure.
August 18 2009
The new TWs I set up yesterday seem to be doing pretty well, there are 56400 TW 1336 per mil and 25000 TW 1052 per mil, the TS have reached a point were there are over 330000 per mil so I took out 10 mils of it and started a new batch. the CO2 level in tank A is 6.9
August 17 2009
Set up spread sheets and graphs of algae counts and ph levels. the can be seen at
http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Aol6idbLnLITdGRuczVGOXZsUFAzUGRRdHBWVGNXb3c&hl=en and
http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Aol6idbLnLITdGhDQnpXQlhxLVVzelFxUHd4LUtPNHc&hl=en respectively. All the TS's I set up earlier have died out do I am going to set up another sample from scratch.
August 13 2009
The pH reader downstairs musty be a little off because I am getting readings of 6.8-6.for the CO2 tank and it is reading 7.2 downstairs. The control is at a steady 8. The TW algae I split on 8/4 seem to be pretty much decimated they are in the low tens per micro liter and there are a lot of dead cells floating around. I split off a 10 mil sample from the 8/4 split and missed it with 40 mils of media so we will see if it happens again. The TS are doing great and their concentration adjusted for dilution is 178133 per mil.
August 12 2009
Co2 tank is reading a pH of 6.9, the sensor downstairs says 7.2. the control tub is a healthy 8.
counted the newer algae samples. the following are the concentration per mil adjusted for dilution TW 1052: 18200 TW 1336: 19600 TS:142700
August 11 2009
When collecting water from the CO2 tank noticed that the CO2 bubbler was not running. this could explain why there was still a relatively high pH yesterday. So took new pH readings after the CO2 had been running for a while and got 7.6 for tank A and 8 for both of the tanks had a SG of 1.024 and a temp of 9 C.
I counted the algae using the same method as before and have come to the following concentration ber mil, accounting for dilution: TW 1336:137800 per mil, TW 1052: 141800 TS: 206400
August 10 2009
Salinity, temperature, and pH of downstairs oyster tanks were all similar to the readings that were taken on 8/5 except for the CO2 tank which is at 44.
Counted algae using same methods as on 8/5, averages were as follows, tw 1336: 97 per ul tw 1052: 92 TS: 146. the volumes per ml corrected for dilution are 97000, 92000 and 195000 respectively. Also some how the machine that held the TWs heater was turned off this weekend and temperatures dropped a slow as .4 C, this could account for a larger amount of dead cells in those samples.
August 5 2009
Took Salintiy and pH, however this time when I took the pH I span the sample and got a pH of 7.88 for the take with CO2 (A) and a pH of 8.1 for the control (b). Both tanks have a SP of 1.024 and a temperature of 9 C. The pressure in the CO2 tank is currently at 56 kg/cm2.
The average for the TW 1052 alge was 66, the TW 1336 was 72 and the TS was 155. for the TWs my sample size was 50 ul and for the TS it was 60 ul and 20 ul of 70% ethonal. THe averages where calculated from counting the toatal in 1 ul of the solution. with the above numbers in mind we can conclude that there are about 66000 TW 1052, 72000 TW 1336, and 207000 TS per mil. The data can be seen at
