- Course Enrolment Limitations
- The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
The capacity limit for the course is 16 student(s).
Current registration and enrolment status: enrolled: 0/16, only registered: 0/16, only registered with preference (fields directly associated with the programme): 0/16 - fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
- there are 6 fields of study the course is directly associated with, display
- Course objectives
- The aim of the practical course is to make students familiar with: (i) the method of plasmid and genomic bacterial DNA isolation using kits, (ii) with PCR reaction preparation, and (iii) with the control gel electrophoresis.
- Learning outcomes
- At the end of this course, the students should be able to use practically the microbial DNA isolation protocol, the method of polymerase chain reaction, and the gel electrophoresis method.
- Syllabus
- 1. Preparation of bacterial lysates from cultures of Pseudomonas putida and Escherichia coli.
- 2. Amplification of four specific genes.
- 3. Gel electrophoresis of the amplification, purification of the PCR products.
- 4. Electrophoresis of the purification PCR products, quantification and preparation of the sample for the sending and DNA sequencing.
- 5. In silico analysis of the DNA sequencing.
- 6. Isolation of the genomic DNA - bacterial culture Escherichia coli.
- 7. Estimation of the concentration and purity of the DNA spectrophotometrically.
- 8. Isolation of the genomic DNA from the sample with Chlamydia trachomatis.
- 9. Indicative estimation of the concentration and the purity of the DNA spectrofotometrically.
- 10. Polymerase chain reaction by system end-point, gel electrophoresis.
- 11. Real-time PCR with DNA sample from Chlamydia trachomatis.
- 12. Delivery of filled in lab protocols, discussion.

- Teaching methods
- Students work individually and process their own sample. The results of experiments have to be summarized and evaluated in protocols. The protocols are prepared in accordance (information v the first practise and lecture). In the protocols students describe, compare, analyze, evaluated and discuss own results.
- Assessment methods
- The course is closed by a course-unit credit. The students obtain their credits for active attendance at the course and for the preparation of protocols
- Language of instruction
- Czech
- Follow-Up Courses
- Further comments (probably available only in Czech)
- Study Materials
The course is taught annually.
