This PCR didn't work. Will have to mull over why and try again tomorrow.

FISH

Hybridization Cocktail

1. Added 4 uL S3 and S2 for both V4 and V6.
2. Dried in vaccuum centrifuge
3. Resuspended in 12.5 uL 100% formamide
4. Added 12.5 uL 4X SSCT + 20% Dextran Sulfate

FISH Slide Preparation

Following original FISH protocol:

1. Allow stored slides to warm to room temperature
2. Incubate slides in 2X SSCT +50% (v/v) formamide for 2.5 minutes at 92 C in a pre-warmed coplin jar
3. Incubate in coplin jar containing 2X SSCT + 50% formamide at 60C for 20 minutes
4. Allow slides to cool to room temperature
5. Add 25 uL hybridization cocktail to a 22x22 #1.5 coverslip
6. Invert slides on to cocktail-covered coverslips; seal with rubber cement
7. Allow the rubber cement to air-dry for 5 minutes at room temperature
8. Denature for 2.5 minutes at 92C; keep humid
9. Transfer slides to a humidified chamber and hybridize overnight at 37C or 42C
