Lisa Funny!

Just thought I would share this exchange of mail between Lisa and her friend Karen:

Ah...what is a TaqMan probe. Sounds like it might be uncomfortable.

Hey get your mind out of the gutter, girl! It's a small, very expensive oligonucleotide that is fluorescently labeled. I am hoping it is specific to the bacteria I am working on for the qPCR project we are doing. Does that clear it up ?? :)

Yes. That entirely clears it up for me. I almost bought a handbag designed by oligonucleotide. Sadly it was too pricey for me. I think i'll check Google and see if they are having any sales.
