Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary subject that uses computer technology to develop methods and tools for understanding complex sets of biological data. In this webinar, we'll cover why bioinformatics skills are worth learning, the four critical skill areas, the “tech stack” in bioinformatics, and suggest a roadmap for learning bioinformatics skills relevant to your career goals.
This course will be guided by Zymo Research's Director of Informatics, Jeffrey M. Bhasin, PhD, who aims to provide a practical introduction to bioinformatics for any student, scientist, or curious mind with an interest in the field.

      Hi Kevin, we would recommend storing the purified DNA in either a -20C or -80C freezer to ensure long term stability.

    For how long should you thaw on ice?

    • @ZymoResearch
      @ZymoResearch Před měsícem

      For the initial thawing step prior to adding DNA, it usually only takes about 2-3 minutes. We usually recommend flicking the tube with the competent cells just to see if the contents is still solid. If it is, then you can let the tube thaw for a few more minutes.

  • @habeebahtitilola8015

    Hello Zymo, Can i use a thermo mixer in place of Bead beater?

    • @ZymoResearch
      @ZymoResearch Před měsícem

      Hi Habeebah, we would not recommend using a Thermo Mixer for the bead beating step. The Thermo Mixer will just shake the beads, but it won't move them in the right orientation so that they break open the microbial cells. In this case, you most likely will end up with low yields and underrepresentation of harder-to-lyse microbes like gram-positive bacteria or fungi. Here is a list of bead beating instruments and conditions that we would recommend: files.zymoresearch.com/documents/bead_beating_short_protocol_tables.pdf The easiest to set up would be the Vortex Genie from Scientific Industries with a Horizontal Tube Adapter (see links below): www.zymoresearch.com/products/vortex-genie-2 www.zymoresearch.com/products/horizontal-microtube-holder

  • @ope4422

    Tip to increase plasmid yield exponentially: Before using kit, spin down 1mL of culture and discard supernatant. Re-suspend in 1:1 LB and H20, ~600uL. Continue using plasmic miniprep kit as instructed. This technique has increased yield 7x in some cases. Hope this helps someone else!

    • @CR-pg8bd
      @CR-pg8bd Před měsícem

      Thank you for sharing this tip. Sorry if this is a silly question, but why do you recommend resuspending in 1:1 LB and H2O specifically, versus just ddH2O or LB for example?

      @ZymoResearch Před měsícem

      Hi Maxine, you can use the PowerLyzer 24 Homogenizer for the bead beating steps. I believe that instrument is very similar to the Omni Bead Ruptor Elite instrument, so you can use those conditions as we've outlined here in our Optimized Lysis Protocols sheet files.zymoresearch.com/documents/bead_beating_short_protocol_tables.pdf:

  • @drcaoimhingriffin9048

    At the initial TRizol/Ethanol mixing step, would using 100% Ethanol instead of 95% Ethanol affect the RNA yield from the extraction

    • @ZymoResearch
      @ZymoResearch Před měsícem

      Good question! At this step, 95-100% ethanol can be used and the kit performance/RNA yield will be the same. The more important thing is that the ratio remains at 1:1 with the volume of TRIzol.

    • @ZymoResearch
      @ZymoResearch Před měsícem

      Yes, there is an appendix procedure for isolating plasmid DNA from Gram-Positive bacteria using the ZymoPURE Plasmid kits. You can find it on pg. 9 of the following Maxiprep protocol (link below). The main modification is to include a lytic enzyme (e.g. lysozyme) to help break down the cell wall of hardier Gram-Positive bacteria. files.zymoresearch.com/protocols/_d4202_d4203_zymopure_ii_plasmid_maxiprep.pdf

  • @SELFEMPOWERMENTFORWOMEN

    I believe I've created an epigenetic emotional and mental psychological tool that's getting 100% results in resolving the cyclic negative behavioural patterns. I built it based on realising you have to work within a bloodline to be sure you get the root. Although I've got hundreds of real people case studies, I don't have anything scientific. I think this is a mahout missing live of the puzzle and it's organic. I also don't have the funding for an official study. Although my tool is now used in 20 countries by therapists. It really is a one of a kind. I think all studies need to also be segmented into males and females. Keep up the great work guys.

    Great video. I have a question. In the first scenario it was around a 9% chance of a false positive and an almost 0% chance of a false negative. Do labs do any additional calculations to combine the two (positives and negative numbers) to give a more accurate result? Basically I’m trying to work out in the first scenario if the person got a positive result then does that mean it’s 91% accurate or is it more accurate than that when you factor in the negative numbers?? Hope that makes sense…

    Great video! A suggestion for something you could do in the future might be to make a video comparing Amplicon Sequencing and Shotgun Sequencing, as 16S is just an example of an amplicon. You state that the use of 16S region limits your study to just bacteria, but other highly conserved regions can be used to target members of the other domains, like the 18S and ITS regions like you mentioned at the end.

  • @alfianabdulhalin1873
    @alfianabdulhalin1873 Před 3 lety

    Thanks for the video Doc :) A good explanation. I have a question though. From what I understand, at the current moment... we cannot know whether someone has covid-19 without doing the RT-PCR test, right? ... One can only know whether they are infected only based on this test. The thing is... when people talk about FP and FN (false positives and negatives) ... one thing that is required is the actual number of positive (true positive) people and also the actual number of those without the disease (true negative).... Now... since we don't have any true positive numbers (since the RT-PCR itself is not a gold standard)... how can FP or any other metric (e.g. sensitivity, specificity, or even FN) be reported or calculated? Ideally (or supposedly), before the RT-PCR would even be administered... one would have to have a sure way of knowing whether a person has the disease or not. Say this is done through isolating and purifying test subjects samples and absolutely determining whether or not he/she has the virus. In short, this is the gold standard... where the ground truth is known (meaning we know who actually has the virus, and who does not have the virus). Then, after these subjects have been properly classified.... then we run the RT-PCR on them... to see which patients are classified as +ve and which as -ve. .... and only then can we calculate the false positive (or whatever other) metric, right? Now... with the absenece of such subjects... how can we say that the RT-PCR has a FP of such and such? Or an FN of such and such....? Please note that this is not a negative comment. I am just trying to clarify based on what I've learned in my research on how to calculate false positives, sensitivity etc. :) Thank you!
