TE Buffer Resource Report Resource Website |
Ms Alex Aitken | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.c5uy6v | VERVE Net, Sullivan Lab | TE is a commonly used buffer solution in molecular biology, especially in procedures involving DNA or RNA. "TE" is derived from its components: Tris, a common pH buffer, and EDTA, a molecule that chelates cations like Mg2+. The purpose of TE buffer is to solubilize DNA or RNA, while protecting it from degradation: 10 mM Tris, bring to pH 8.0 with HCl, 1 mM EDTA | http://www.nhm.ac.uk/resources-rx/files/te-buffer_aug12-118648.pdf | 1 | 2016 | Ms Alex Aitken 2016.

Treatments for the Preservation of Seawater Samples Resource Report Resource Website |
Bonnie Poulos, Jenn Brum, Elke Allers, Christine Schirmer | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.c29yh5 | VERVE Net, Sullivan Lab | This protocol consists of several methods for the preservation of seawater samples to later perform various techniques in the lab. It is meant as a sampling treatment in the field and is written as comprehensive; however, depending on needs and scientific questions, any or all of the methods may be used.Flow Cytometry (FCM): Samples are used for counting bacteria and for sorting different groups of microbes (eg, sorting synechococcus and prochlorococcus and non-fluorescent bacteria). Glutaraldehyde fixes microbes and renders them unculturable whereas microbes preserved in DMSO and Betaine can usually be cultured after thawing and rinsing. Betaine was developed for single cell sorting and may be a better preservative than DMSO.SYBR staining: Samples are used for counting bacteria (unfiltered or pre-filtered seawater) and viruses (unfiltered, pre-filtered or 0.2um filtered seawater) microscopically after staining with SYBR-Gold (or SYBR-Green). Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM): Samples are used for determining frequency of visibly infected cells (FVIC) and determining types of microbes or viruses present, and can be quantitative.Quantitative PCR (qPCR): Samples are used for quantitative PCR of microbes. They can also be used for quantitative PCR of viruses.Viral qPCR: Samples are used for quantitative PCR of viruses.Culturing Viruses: Samples are used for cultivating viruses by solid or liquid plaque assay on susceptible hosts. Samples can also be used for viral tagging (using flow cytometry) and most probable number (MPN) assays.Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH): Samples are used with fluorescent probes to determine what populations of bacteria or other microbes are present. The filters may also be used to simply count the number of microbes in a sample.

Wet-mount Method for Enumeration of Aquatic Viruses Resource Report Resource Website |
B.R. Cunningham, J.R. Brum, S.M. Schwenck, M.B. Sullivan, S.G. John | DOI:10.17504/protocols.io.c8pzvm | VERVE Net, Sullivan Lab | Purpose: This method for the enumeration of aquatic viruses is a low-cost alternative to the commonly used filter-mount method. Briefly, fluorescently-stained samples are wetmounted directly onto slides for epifluorescence microscopy after an optional chemical flocculation concentration step used for samples with anticipated virus concentrations of 7 viruses mL-1 (samples with >5×107 viruses mL-1 do not require this concentration step prior to analysis). Virus concentration in the wet-mounted sample is determined from the ratio of viruses to microsphere beads, which are added at a known concentration. This wet-mount method for enumerating viruses is significantly less expensive than the filter-mount method (i.e., the cost of microsphere beads per sample is ~500-fold lower than the cost of one filter per sample), and is appropriate for rapid, precise and accurate enumeration of aquatic viruses over a wide range of viral concentrations encountered in field and laboratory samples. The only limitation of this method is that samples with virus concentrations ≤1×106 viruses mL-1 cannot be enumerated, as the abundance of viruses is too low for efficient enumeration.Figure 1.
