Bacterial Transformations Continued:

Today in Biology, we shined UV light on the +pGLO, LB, AMP/ARA colonies. The bacteria glow in the presence of UV light, as described in the previous post.
Some more information on this lab and the arabinose operon can be found on this site (http://faculty.clintoncc.suny.edu/faculty/michael.gregory/files/bio%20101/bio%20101%20laboratory/bacterial%20transformation/bacteria.htm), which I may use for more research in the future.
