DNA lab

Today in lab we tested our DNA. We put Distilled water in our mouth from a test tube and swished it around like mouth wash to get some of our cheek cells. Then we spit the Distilled water and cheek cells back into the test tube and added a droplet of alcohol and mixed the solutions together. Then we placed the test tubes into the water bath at 50 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes.
After removed from the water bath we added another type of solution and mixed them and then extracted the DNA from the test tube and placed it in a necklace type tube and added dye to be able to make out the DNA.
