Not content with Western blotting, I'm now onto isotopic in-situ hybridization. If you thought a week of blotting before you can tell if it's worked or not was bad... now we are looking at exposure times (i.e. the autoradiography step at the end) of 7-70 days! *faints*
But anyway I assessed my riboprobe quality yesterday and it looks gooooooood.

Oh yeah, I also did some samba drumming (you can make a lot of noise with a modified Quality Street tin) and saw The Society Of Imaginary Friends amongst other things at the weekend. So it's not entirely a week of 8am starts. Just mostly.

Burble and out.
