  • Repping TTown woot

  • can you guys do a midiprep video?

  • that's rediculously high concentration wow

  • ah no man! change tips before dipping in to the bottle! you'l contaminate everything!!!

  • @sergif hahahahaha, I didn't read was low-copy!!!!!!! ok, great!

  • C'mon! 134ng/ul??????? No way!!!!! With Qiagen kit? Make a double lysis (buffers are not limiting) and yields will be around 600-700 ng/ul...measured in a nanodrop...try it!

    BTW, great video...I think we can make a worlwide contest...can we? I bet we here in Barcelona we can beat you...even if you don't believe it!!! :)

  • You guys are my third favorite group of nerds, just after the Big Bang Theory guys and my friends ;-). By the way, is Tucson, not Tuscon. Great video!

  • Ähm.... ja.... so als Tipp... lieber wieder ausm Netz nehmen und sich net vor millionen von leuten lächerlich machen. Nerds sin manchmal geistreich und witzig... ihr habt soviel Austrahlung wie fusspilz am daumen, sorry.
