One of the buildings on the #Promega campus is named after #HedyLamarr.

I’m happy to see something I’ve been working on for the past four years in the news.
#Electrophoresis involves measuring how fast molecules are pulled through a polymer gel by an electric field. We detect the molecules by measuring the wavelength of light they emit when excited by a laser.

I do have every intention of actually going to the lab to #nanopore #sequence some #pig poop tomorrow though. I have been testing out different #extraction kits for an upcoming #microbiome project and in this round I have been testing out #promega maxwell DNA extraction robot. Honestly I will be amazed if there's no cross-contamination I was uncomfortable for the entire protocol.
