Putting the pieces together, we were able to translate the manual plasmid purification protocol provided by Nans
Bodet into an Opentrons protocol, being the very first of its kind. We pioneered a workflow for up to six
samples with the p300 Single-Channel Electronic Pipette and a scaled-up version for up to 48 samples with the
p300 8-Channel Electronic Pipette without having to intervene even once. This scalability provides important
flexibility for various kinds of experiments.
In our process of developing and running the protocol we determined some problems on increasing the yield of our
plasmids. There was a large number of parameters that could be varied, changing the final concentration of the
plasmids. For example, we realized that the duration of lysis is paramount for the yield and success of plasmid
purification. Over-lysis will lead to a decrease in plasmid yield, whereas under-lysis will induce clumping of
magnetic beads; thus failing the experiment. After a whole heap of plasmid purifications we managed to identify
the most relevant parameters and improve the protocol in the best way possible.
