sample A and sample B preparation:

plasmid concentration was measured with NanoDrop = 177ng/ml

- > diluted 17.7 times to the  concentration 10 ng/ul

->concentration was confirmed with Nanodrop = 9.8 ng/ul

->this dilution was aliquoted as sample A for students

->an extra aliquote of sample A was diluted additionally 1:5, 1:10, 1:25, 1:60

->these dilutions were aliquoted as samples B and signed with students names

Here you can find the syllabus  and  schedule

 

Real-time quantitative PCR is a very popular method broadly used and missused in molecular biology. The aim of this course is not only to teach the very basics of the qPCR theory and practice, but also to introduce students to the MIQE guidelines essential for designing performing and interpreting quantitative experiments in a reliable way.

Another aim of this course is to familiarize students with more adavanced techonologies alternative to qPCR which are gradually becoming more and more available. Students will have an opportunity to meet with experts from SciLifeLab and Functional Genomics Unit of Helsinki University and also learn how qPCR is applied in forensic science.
