Absorbance assay at 280 nm. This method is just as convenient as for absorbance at 280 nm. It may be preferred if there is excessive contamination by nucleic acids, since nucleic acids absorb very little radiation at 205 nm. Setting the wavelength is a bit tricky since 205 nm is right on the shoulder of the protein peak. - [Read Absorbance Assay 205 nm]

Protocol for microingecting C.elegans worms. Includes: Making the DNA solution; Setting up the scope, loading the needle, mounting, and breaking the needle; Mounting worms on an injection pad; Injecting. - [Read Microinjecting C.elegans Worms Protocol]
Arabidopsis naturally self-pollinates, the generation of cross-progeny requires some intervention by the investigator. This protocol describes the generation and collection of seeds by crossing suitable Arabidopsis parent plants. - [Read Setting Up Arabidopsis Crosses Protocol]
Protocol describes how to set up microdrop cultures to produce embryos which can then be used for making chimeras. The microdrop culture should be set up several hours to 1 day before the experiment to permit temperature and gas equilibration. - [Read Setting Up Microdrop Cultures Protocol]
