According to all known laws
of aviation,
there is no way a bee
should be able to fly.
Its wings are too small to get
its fat little body off the ground.
The bee, of course, flies anyway
because bees don't care
what humans think is impossible.
Yellow, black. Yellow, black.
Yellow, black. Yellow, black.

Notes:
Total RNA sample 5 used, prepared on Friday 02/06 by Jorge (Concentration: 126 ng/µl)
Procedure:
Take 1 µl presample from stock ; add with 2 µl nf H2O and 3 µl 2x RNA LD
Put 5 µl of sample on device
Take 1 µl of sample immediately, add with 2 µl nf H2O and 3 µl 2x RNA LD
Wait 15 minutes
Take 1 µl of sample immediately, add with 2 µl nf H2O and 3 µl 2x RNA LD
Store at -80 °C
What still needs to be done:
Cook samples at 95 °C for 10 minutes and put directly on ice afterwards (to prevent refolding)

Na: FINA extraction performed as in protocol.
Cl: FINA extraction performed with 10 mM HCl instead of NaOH.
L: Cell solution incubated 10 min in 1 mg/ml lysozyme. No washing step in FINA
H: Cell solution incubated 10 min at 80 ºC. No washing step in FINA
LH: Cell solution incubated 10 min at 80 ºC in 1 mg/ml lysozyme. No washing step in FINA
K-: negative control FINA (LB-medium used as sample).
P: 1:4 dilution of gRNA PEC #1 after reverse transcription.
S: 1:4 dilution of gRNA PEC #1 after FINA extraction for RNA and reverse transcription.
KK: Negative control for the cDNA synthesis (water instead of MuLV-RT used)
