kanzuresome guy is trying to argue that OpenJsCad is boolean operations on NURBS10:50
kanzureso not only do i have to continue to explain that blender is not the same sort of engine as solidworks or catia,10:51
kanzurebut the developers don't even know the difference10:51
kanzurethis probably is insufficient10:55
kanzurehttp://diyhpl.us/wiki/cadfaq10:55
kanzurei suppose most people don't care if their models are 100s of thousands of tessellated triangles, as long as it prints on the printer.. (yawn)10:56
kanzurecsg.js is nice if you never, ever share the output of the file, but only the source file; also, it's nice if you never, ever actually render large models with it10:57

kanzureso this seems to use an optical method to guide beads into different areas for dna synthesis11:08
kanzurei'm not sure how it prevents the different reservoires from mixing into the main channel11:09

-!- Helleshin [~talinck@cpe-174-101-208-182.cinci.res.rr.com] has joined ##hplusroadmap11:18
kanzuredelinquentme: yes, it's very difficult to know whether or not someone has previously thought about a certain math concept11:19
delinquentmekanzure, SO i guess its correct to say that in order to apply mathematical models effectively to these problems you've got to have a solid basis in math processes11:21
delinquentmeIE knows lots about the applications11:21
kanzurewhat?11:21
delinquentmeyou've got to know lots of math11:22
delinquentmein order to pickout which model / technique11:22
delinquentmewould best help a problem11:22
kanzuresure. or you can just make up the math on your own (this has the downside of making it hard to search for what other people call the problem, or how they approached similar problems)11:23
kanzurewow wow, what11:23
kanzurewhy is elsevier displaying ads on sciencedirect ow11:23
kanzure*now11:23
kanzurescroll down to the bottom on http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S000326971000404511:23

kanzurehrm. it occurs to me that it should be possible to spam google scholar's index,11:27
kanzurefor every paper that sciencedirect hosts, generate a pdf with the same citation information11:27
kanzurethen allow google scholar to crawl these pdfs11:28
kanzureinstead of content, the pdfs will be something else11:28
kanzurei'm fairly confident that nobody in their right mind goes to sciencedirect except from google scholar11:28
delinquentmeok here we go:11:30
delinquentmea program to check whether particular beneficial proteins are expressed in microarray data11:31
kanzurecan i convince you to just work on a dna synthesis instrument instead :P11:32
delinquentmekanzure, what are you doing with it :D11:37
delinquentmeI agree that DNA synthesis will be huge soon11:38

kanzuredelinquentme: well, my ideal scenario is a polymerase that i can control11:43
kanzuredeliquentme: but i'd settle with a microfluidic or desktop-sized device that would build oligos of any length11:43
kanzurepossibly from a library, or possibly from de novo synthesis11:43
delinquentmewell how do you get the polymerase to work11:44
kanzureit would probably require on-board sequencing for verification11:44
kanzurenobody knows that yet, so a more traditional dna synthesis approach is needed11:44
delinquentmekanzure, sounds like you should just build a system which consistently sequences the right bases11:44
kanzurewhat? i'm talking about synthesis11:45
-!- Lucas_ [81317815@gateway/web/freenode/ip.129.49.120.21] has joined ##hplusroadmap11:45
delinquentmekanzure, yeah I mean skip the expensive machine11:46
Lucas_good afternnon11:46
delinquentmeso how to isolate the polymerase?11:46
kanzureisolating polymerase isn't an issue11:46
delinquentmebut doesnt the polymerase use a single strand to create sequences?11:46
Lucas_ohh, biology11:46
delinquentmeergo you'd already have a particular sequence synthesized in order for it to work?11:46
Lucas_what's the issue, I am curious11:47
delinquentme:P11:47
kanzuredelinquentme: are you talking about traditional dna synthesis, or yesterday's crazy polymerase hacking work?11:47
delinquentmeLucas_, kanz is interested in DNA synthesis using really fast tools11:47
delinquentmekanzure, im just asking questions as to how the polymerase would synthesize DNA11:47
kanzureonce you synthesize a 6nt strand, you still need to combine it with the next strand, thus polymerase.. pretty standard11:47
delinquentme( because im 95% clueless )11:48
kanzureok, are you asking how pcr works?11:48
Mariuyou reminded me of 'The Architect' from 'The Matrix', when you said "ergo" xD11:48
delinquentmenah im fairly comfortable w themocycling11:48
kanzurethermocycling is just a process...11:48
delinquentmeMariu, :D11:48
Mariu=p11:48
kanzurepcr is polymerase chain reaction. it uses polymerase.11:48
delinquentmekanzure, true but you're talking "from scratch" synthesis11:49
kanzureso anyway, let's say you do de novo oligo synthesis of 6 nt, you still need to sequence and confirm that it's valid, then you do ligation+pcr11:49
delinquentmePCR is simply amplification of an existing sequence11:49
delinquentme6 nt11:49
delinquentmenucleotides11:49
delinquentmekk11:49
kanzurebp11:49
kanzureusually you do single-strand synthesis.. so bp isn't accurate, but people know what you're talking about11:50
delinquentmekanzure, you dont need ligation11:50
delinquentmeyou're doing denovo synthesis ... there are no cells to rupture11:50
delinquentmeright?11:50
kanzureligation is the joining of two dna strands together using something like dna ligase11:51
delinquentmeyou're talking like a machine which legos this shit together and viola you've got 6 nucleotides11:51
delinquentmeLIGATION not lysing ok11:51
kanzureum, yeah- de ovo oligo synthesis is very standard11:51
delinquentmeok11:51
delinquentmeim with you .. continue11:51
kanzureyou can run the phosphoramidite method for as long as you want, making 1000s of bp of dna11:51
kanzurebut there is a natural error rate due to problems11:52
kanzuresometimes that's 1 in 250 or worse11:52
kanzurepolymerase does 1 error in 10,000 or better11:52
kanzureso if yuo want to be sure that your output is correct in the process of synthesis, you sequence it along the way11:53

-!- Lucas_ [81317815@gateway/web/freenode/ip.129.49.120.21] has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]11:54
kanzurethen you do onboard sanger sequencing of anything you synthesize http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/microfluidics_Sanger_sequencer.png11:54
delinquentmeso then your polymerase hangs out in the reaction chambers11:56
kanzuresure11:57
delinquentmeand you pump in the nucleotides through the channels11:57
delinquentmeIs that sanger sequencing microfluidics technique not patented?11:57
kanzurei'm sure someone has patented sanger sequencing11:57
kanzureand i'm sure someone has patented a form of sanger sequencing on microfluidic chips11:58
delinquentmeso how do current companies run their synthesis process?12:03
delinquentmelike mrgene12:03
kanzurei think they outsource to dit :P12:05
kanzure*IDT12:05
kanzurebut no, there's "dna synthesis machines" that use phosphoramidite synthesis or some other bead-based method12:06
delinquentmeso then if you've got polymerase and you've got a source for the fabrication of the chips .. what else do you need?12:06
kanzureno, i'd have to build the chips12:07
kanzureand build the oligo library, and some way to let people restock their oligo library.. hrm12:07
delinquentmeyou' build the chips?12:09
delinquentmethat sounds nuts IMO12:09
delinquentmewhy?12:09
delinquentmechemical etching?12:10
kanzurefirst of all, the chips don't exist12:10
strages_workor if you have a laser....12:10
kanzureit'd probably be pdms photolithography stuff12:10
kanzureor laser cut12:10
kanzurenot a big deal12:11
delinquentmestrages_work, true but I dont think kanz has this laying around?12:11
kanzureum, i do have a laser cutter12:11
strages_worka local hackerspace might....12:11
kanzurei'm the one who bought the laser cutter for the austin hackerspace (at least, the first laser cutter)12:11
kanzure(not the one they are currently using at their new location)12:12
delinquentmeIMO it shoulds like shit you should just outsource12:12
delinquentmeand its not like you need to customize these12:12
kanzureoutsource the design of this device?12:12
delinquentmeyou just need a number of them bc what you're doing it __NOT__ designing novel experiments but instead synthesizing12:13
kanzureyou mean the fabrication? no, i think for prototyping i should do fabrication12:13
delinquentmekanzure, dont you have the design?12:13
kanzurenope, i thought this is what we were talking about12:13
delinquentmeah ok so you're at the design point here12:15
delinquentmeso you need to come up with some mechanism which would allow the polymerase to build the DNA12:15
delinquentmebut im still missing the key aspect12:15
delinquentmepolymerase is synthesis by sequenceing12:16
delinquentmeis it not?12:16
delinquentmehow does that help you with de novo snyth?12:16
kanzurewhat?12:17
kanzureare you confusing two different goals of polymerase protein engineering vs. dna synthesis?12:17
-!- marainein [~marainein@114-198-95-243.dyn.iinet.net.au] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]12:19
delinquentmekanzure, what you're trying to do is dna snythesis right?12:19
kanzurede novo synth can happen without polymerase, but you still need to copy the resulting output so that it is usable12:19
delinquentmeyou want insilico >> ACCACATAGAGTA>> machineX >> chemical ACCACATAGAGTA12:20
kanzure(pcr)12:20
kanzureyes, there's already many well known mechanism of de novo dna synthesis and strategies for dna assembly (without de novo synthesis)12:21
delinquentmeif what you're trying to do is take in sequences and then have a machine assemble a chemical bonded corresponding molecule based off of that sequence we're on the same page12:21
kanzurethe trick is picking which one, designing a microfluidic device to actually do it properly, etc.12:21
delinquentmeon cool12:21
delinquentmebut then I dont get how polymerase helps you?12:21
delinquentmepolymerase reads an existing chunk of DNA right?12:21
kanzureare you asking "how does yesterday's chat about polymerase engineering help you?"12:22
delinquentmeohhhhh12:22
kanzureor "why do you need pcr after dna synthesis?"12:22
delinquentmethe polymerase is not part of this synthesis operation?12:22
delinquentmeim trying to figure out the mechanism you're wanting to use for todays chat about synthesis12:22
kanzurewell, you can use polymerase if you're doing bead-based synthesis (like your strand is attached to the bead); this is also the same bead strategy in phosphoramidite synthesis heh12:23

kanzurethey can be12:59
kanzurelike water-in-oil12:59

delinquentmekanzure, you looking for a good time?17:27
delinquentmegene_hacker, share the luv17:27
kanzurehi aristarchus17:28
gene_hackeryou'd have a huge tangle of rope attached to the ground, blowing in the wind17:28
aristarchuskanzure: hello17:28
kanzuregene_hacker: nah, not an issue17:28
kanzurethat's how it currently works17:29
gene_hackerwhen your strand get's up to size HUGE! wouldn't it get washed out too?17:29
kanzureno, it's attached to the bead17:29
kanzure(or to the wall)17:29
gene_hackerso in some sort of gel?17:29
kanzurenope.. one sec17:30
gene_hackerso are you combining oligo in parallel? or in one large chamber?17:30
kanzurewell, i'm not sure, i think parallel would be smart, but probably hard to manage17:30
kanzureso let's say you combine A+B17:31
kanzureyou need to verify that A+B worked, and then store the result until you know the results17:31
kanzurelike if you do on chip sequencing17:31
kanzurenow, you might not want to sequence after every operation so maybe it's A+B+C+D+E that you want to test17:31
kanzureand then you combine (A+B+C+D+E) with (F+G)17:31
gene_hackerso one central bead where you apply oligo one at a time?17:32
kanzureso you'd have maybe 100 different addressable "banks" to temporarily store stuff in17:32
kanzuregene_hacker: where you apply the +5 bp, yes..17:32
kanzuremultiple chambers/reactions is possible but it complicates the circuit design17:32
kanzuregene_hacker: http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/microfluidics/synthesis/Synthesis%20-%20Integrated%20two-step%20gene%20synthesis%20in%20a%20microfluidic%20device%20(1k%20bp,%201%20error%20per%20250%20bp).pdf17:33
kanzurethis is an ok example i think17:33
gene_hackerare you put the dna together 5 bp at a time?17:34
kanzureyes17:35
kanzurebut you can imagine storing the "result" of 5+5 somewhere, and later using it17:36
kanzureor even "1000+5", and using that later17:36
gene_hackerin the paper you mention, they put together 40 mer  oligos with 20 mer overlap17:36
kanzureyeh, this paper is slightly different17:36
gene_hackerhow'd they get those oligos?17:36
kanzurei haven't read this one in a while; it sorta depends17:37
kanzurethey might have synthesized those on a dna microarray with photochemistry17:37
gene_hackerso it is difficult to parallelize your method?17:37
gene_hackerso how long would one step take?17:37
kanzurethat depends on channel geometry17:38
-!- eridu [~eridu@gateway/tor-sasl/eridu] has joined ##hplusroadmap17:38
gene_hackerwhat's the most reasonable estimate for how long adding one oligo would take17:38
kanzurei'm looking this up, i don't want to bs oyu17:38
gene_hacker1 second, ten seconds, 30 seconds?17:38
kanzure*you17:38
kanzurei'd say 10-30 seconds is a good target to reach17:39
kanzurebut currently there's no commercial synthesizer that does anything near 1 bp/sec17:39
delinquentmei learned about sample std dev and population std dev17:39
gene_hackerabout an hour for a kilobase17:40
kanzurehmm17:40
gene_hackerwell I need to go17:40
gene_hackerthat's not bad17:40
kanzurei'm pretty sure it's worse than that17:41
kanzurebut17:41
kanzuresmall reaction sample sizes might allow you to increase reaction rates17:41
kanzurelike with pcr (nanoliter droplet + laser => orders-of-magnitude-faster pcr)17:41
-!- augur [~augur@c-69-250-19-178.hsd1.md.comcast.net] has joined ##hplusroadmap17:41
gene_hackerthe other problem is the rate of consumption of your oligos17:41
kanzurethis is why they need to be pcr tubes (or something else),17:42
kanzureso that you can replace your stock17:42
gene_hackeryour stock could be expensie17:42
kanzureyep probably17:42

kanzureyes you can buy sequences of any length you want20:02
kanzurehttp://mrgene.com/20:02
kanzurehuh invitrogen bought mrgene?20:03
kanzure$0.35/bp .. why is it increasing in price20:03
kanzurethat's all wrong20:03
gene_hackerbut is it possible to make very pure 5 pb segments?20:05
gene_hackerhttp://www.lightlabsusa.com/Rota-Rack-Duo-Tube-Rack.html20:06
kanzureyes they will give you a high quality sample.. i mean, that's their job :p20:06
gene_hackernow this is a tube rack20:06
gene_hackerhow much would 1024 different samples cost though?20:06
kanzurea lot. you would not order 1024 samples from them20:06
kanzureyou'd probably setup a custom business outfit to make oligo librarise- or get better pricing from somewhere else20:07
gene_hackerfrom the dimensions on the tube rack, 32x32 eppie tubes would take  up 2'x2'20:07
gene_hackerthat's pretty big20:07
kanzureonce you have the initial library it's really easy to just copy as much as you need20:07
kanzure2 feet? bah20:07
kanzurenot bad20:07
gene_hackerthat's pretty big20:07
kanzureyou could keep it under your bed :P20:08
gene_hackerNow how would you dispense nanoliters of droplets from the epie tube?20:08
kanzurenot sure, haven't thought about that yet20:08
gene_hacker1 valve per tube?20:08
kanzureprobably20:08
gene_hackerso you have 1024 valves20:08
kanzureminimum20:08
kanzurethere also has to be either (1) dedicated channels for each tube or (2) a way to wash the whole thing after each withdrawal20:09
kanzures/wash/flush20:09
gene_hackerthat sounds complex20:09
kanzureyes.. so #1 is preferable ;)20:09
gene_hackerhow would one replace a valve when it fails20:10
gene_hackerstill you're going to need moving parts20:10
kanzurei haven't come up with an optimal solution yet, i'm open to ideas20:10
gene_hackerplus your nanoliter droplets need to travel over 2 feet to get to where they need to go20:10
yashgarothoh ffs you can at least use multiwell plates20:11
kanzurenot if you want a person to replace each well20:11
kanzurereplenish each well20:11
gene_hackerI don't think you can do that with pipes over that distance, at least not without using a bunch of expensive fluid20:11
yashgarothreplenishment is no harder with a well if all you're doing is adding more20:12
kanzureyou can't expose the liquid to atmosphere20:12
kanzureever..20:12
gene_hackernot even helium?20:12
yashgarothwhat why not?20:12
kanzurei'd prefer not to work with helium or gases20:12
kanzureyashgaroth: contamination20:12
yashgarothrun the whole thing in a TC hood, those things are great20:12
kanzureit's much easier if you just don't use atmosphere20:12
yashgarothI literally don't even need to use gloves, never had contamination in a thousand flasks20:13
kanzureanyway, i don't really trust users to refill a 32x32 microarray with the right oligos20:13
gene_hackerCould you breed oligos on the spot?20:14
yashgarothoh, me either, but that's not a case for using ep tubes20:14
gene_hackerfrom common compounds20:14
kanzuregene_hacker: yes, this is called "oligonucleotide synthesis"20:14
kanzureit's a five or six step process per bp20:15
gene_hackerthen what benefit does the 1024 library have over conventional oligonucleotide synthesis?20:15
-!- eudoxia [~eudoxia@r186-52-177-32.dialup.adsl.anteldata.net.uy] has quit [Quit: Leaving]20:15
kanzureyou don't have to synthesize any of the 1024 :P20:15
gene_hackerthen how do you get more?20:15
kanzure1) mail order20:16
kanzure2) pcr20:16
kanzureeither option.20:16
gene_hackerso you're just using someone else's error prone oligonucleotide synthesis?20:16
kanzureno, you'd get someone who does verification of their sequences20:16
kanzurei.e. someone who synthesizes then sequences to verify20:17
gene_hackerisn't oligonucleotide synthesis inherently error prone?20:17
yashgarothyou can't really sequence an oligo that short, and even then it's always the 0.1% that's gonna be wrong20:17
kanzurebut yes, oligo synthesis does have a high error rate20:17
kanzurethat's why you want to get that step out of the way20:17
kanzureand just use a library of known good strands20:17
gene_hackera library of 1024 unique parts that each have to be inspected before use?20:18
gene_hackerthat sounds expensive20:18
yashgarothcouldn't you just mix a load of 6-mers together and ligate into strands? like 3 & 3 overlapping20:19
kanzureyes, but you just inspect it once,20:19
kanzureso let's say that you don't want to pcr your library contents when they get low,20:19
kanzureyou'd just ask me to send over some more, and i'd do the pcr from my stock :p20:19
kanzureyashgaroth: yes but you want to keep them as 6mers really20:19
yashgarothwell yes20:20
kanzureso you need to keep them separated20:20
yashgarothI20:20
yashgaroth'm not saying mix everything at once20:20
kanzurenow, if you have a mixed library,20:20
kanzureyou'd need some way to address individual items in the library (like with dna)20:20
kanzureso you'd synthesize your "caller".. etc.20:20
kanzureanyway.. i think a separated library is a better idea20:20
yashgarothbut if you make a ~30bp strand where none of the wrong 6mers would overlap each other20:20
kanzurei could be convinced of doing on-chip oligo synthesis, and not having a library, but this just seems really error prone.. you'd definitely need on-chip sequencing,20:21
kanzureand you'd have to sequence every 20bp chunk you make20:21
yashgarothnah, if all your 6mers are good and don't overlap the wrong way they should be fine20:21
kanzurepresumably you'd select a good 6mer based on the current bases near your extending end20:22
yashgarothyou can extend from both ends20:22
gene_hackerwell I guess you're using only 200 nanoliters per kb, it might be doable20:22
kanzureyashgaroth: not if one end is attached to a bead ;)20:22
yashgarothman screw beads20:22
gene_hackernow how much DNA would one get from a process like this?20:22
kanzureit doesn't matter,20:22

kanzureyou would use pcr to copy the dna20:22
gene_hackerit does20:23

kanzureyou can pcr that up to a few thousand nanograms or whatever you need20:23
-!- eridu [~eridu@gateway/tor-sasl/eridu] has quit [Quit: Leaving]20:23
gene_hackerwhen you want to copy a big sequence of DNA from small amounts you have to go through a whole bunch of special steps20:23
yashgarotha nanogram is enough for transformation if you know what you're doing btw20:23
gene_hackerI read that the PCR for that is the most difficult step20:24
kanzurepcr is very well known at this point.. i wouldn't worry about it20:24
yashgarothdefine 'difficult'20:24
kanzureyashgaroth: http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/microfluidics/PCR%20-%20Nanodroplet%20real-time%20PCR%20system%20with%20laser%20assisted%20heating.pdf20:24
kanzure40 cycles in 370 seconds = win20:25
yashgarothplus, lasers20:25
kanzureand not the "have a big giant co2 tube" kind20:25
yashgarothpcr really isn't the hard part in this sort of thing anyway20:26
kanzuregetting 1 bp error per 100-200 is the hard part20:27
kanzurethe problem with on-chip sequencing is that it's a completely different process to debug20:27
gene_hackerwell then what's the problem craig venter is having with chromosome construction?20:27
kanzureso not only do you have synthesis (or oligo library stuff), but also sequencing.. yikes20:27
yashgarothit cost millions upon millions for venter to pull that stunt20:28
gene_hackerare you sequencing the strands as they are made?20:30
kanzurewell, if you have on-chip synthesis then yes, you should sequence as soon as you synthesize anything more than.. 10 bp20:30
yashgarothare you sequencing with PCR? because you'll need a lot more DNA than we'd be working with to get a good signal20:31
gene_hackeris it possible to build an on chip synthesizer?20:32
yashgarothsure, with photolithography20:34
gene_hackeroops meant sequencer20:34
gene_hackerand would it be possible to move the DNA strand being synthesized around the chip on say a bead or something?20:35
yashgaroththat would be extremely hard to control20:35
kanzuregene_hacker: yes, people have done on-chip synthesis with various methods, though i haven't seen on-chip photo-based synthesis20:36
kanzurethe sequencing method would be a very simple sanger sequencing approach, i think20:36
gene_hackerwhat about picoarray?20:36
gene_hackerthat's onchip photo-based synthesis20:36
kanzureyes, it would be possible to move synthesized dna around, like in droplet microfluidics20:36
yashgarothsanger sequencing won't work on reads that short20:36
kanzuregene_hacker: picoarray? this? http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/microfluidics/synthesis/Synthesis%20-%20Microfluidic%20PicoArray%20synthesis%20of%20oligodeoxynucleotides%20and%20simultaneous%20assembling%20of%20multiple%20DNA%20sequences%20(10%20kb).pdf20:37
gene_hackeryeah20:37
gene_hackerthe photogenerated acid one20:37
kanzurebeen a while since i've read this one..20:37
gene_hackerdoesn't use any exotic photo-capped oligos20:37
gene_hackernow if you have to wait 30 seconds for PCR to go through, I guess you could move the whole PCR chip to the required eppie tube while PCR is taking place20:40
gene_hackerand use a 1 nanoliter sucker20:41
gene_hackerinstead 1024 valves20:41
yashgarothhow the shit are you guys sequencing a 10bp fragment20:42
kanzurei don't know, i haven't come up with that yet20:42
gene_hackerWell you could use some probes to read the ends?20:43
kanzurewhat?20:43
yashgarotheven primers for sequencing are longer than 10bp20:43
yashgarothand as a rule of thumb the first 50 bases of sanger sequencing are a write-off20:43
gene_hackerso kanzure are you sure that PCR has a lower error rate than oligosynthesis?20:44
yashgarothpcr amplification does, yes20:44
kanzureoh man, yeah20:44
kanzurejust completely blan out "PCR" as a problem right now20:44
kanzure*blank out20:44
kanzuredna comes in -> more dna comes out20:44
kanzure(plus other crap)20:45
gene_hackerbut when you're doing 200 or more amplification steps and your errors accumulate, is the error rate still lower?20:45
kanzurethe errors happen in the synthesis stage20:45
yashgaroththat's why you sequence the final product, isolated from a single transformed bacterium20:45
kanzurehuh? let's not bring in cell cultures20:46
gene_hackerwhy is it put into a bacteria? to amplify it I presume?20:46
kanzuregene_hacker: it's just one of the things you might want to do with the dna20:46
yashgarothyes, and also bacterial amplification is a million times more accurate than PCR20:46
yashgarothdue to a functioning proofreading complex20:46
gene_hackerbut it's slow, correct?20:46
kanzure12 hour incubation period, is my guess20:47
yashgarothwithin a day you have unlimited amplification20:47
yashgarothbut yes, it takes a day20:47
gene_hackerand isolation?20:47
yashgarothtrivial20:47
gene_hackerthough does it involve manual labor?20:47
kanzure"trivial".. on a chip? you're just making this more work for me :p20:48
gene_hackerlike picking glowing colonies?20:48
yashgarothliter-scale bac culture is trivial20:48
yashgarothhaha if picking colonies is manual labor, then yes20:48
yashgarothalso centrifuging and resuspending and all that20:48
gene_hackeris it time consuming?20:48
kanzurethere's been some people that have done cell culture on a chip.. but meh20:49
gene_hackeror expensive?20:49
kanzureone microbe per droplet, etc.20:49
yashgarothit's less expensive than PCR20:49
yashgarothif you want to do anything significant with a plasmid, it'll need to go into bacteria at some point anyway20:49
yashgarothyou can get nanograms from PCR and grams from bacteria20:49
kanzurewell your dna that you make doesn't have to be for a plasmid20:49
yashgarothtrue20:50
kanzurei think this is definitely down-stream of the dna synthesizer20:50
yashgarothok yes fair enough20:50
gene_hackerthough the process of joining strands together is PCR correct?20:51
yashgarothbut the sequencing is moot; 99% of anything you read will be normal and block out anything else20:51
yashgarothno that's ligation20:51
gene_hackerit requires enzymes right?20:51
yashgarothligase20:51
yashgarothyou just ligate all your fragments (of whatever size) together, transform into bacteria, and isolate a single clone20:51
yashgarothotherwise you can't ever be sure all your sequences are correct anyway20:52
gene_hackerso for each synthesis step ligase enzyme would be required20:52
yashgarothnot oligo synthesis20:52
yashgarothbut for assembling oligos together, yes20:53
gene_hackerthough I guess if we're working with nanoliters, cost should be minimal20:53
yashgaroththe volume is irrelevant, hell more volume/reagents might cost less than tiny valves and shit20:53
yashgarothBRB 10 mins, potatoes20:54
gene_hackerso at the very least it does appear somewhat feasible20:59
gene_hackerthough it might be good to runs some numbers on error rate and reagent consumption21:02

gene_hackerthough I wonder if nanoliter reactions like this are even feasible?21:03
gene_hackeralso looking for a good way to scan a book?21:06
kanzureyes, nanoliters are doable21:07
kanzuregood way to scan a book- odesk.21:07
kanzureor elancer21:08
kanzurehire someone in india. mail them the book. give them $30.21:08
gene_hackercan't ship the book to india21:08
gene_hackerwell if nanoliters are doable21:10
kanzurenanoliters are definitely doable; and in many cases, biochem is faster on this level21:11
kanzureyou don't have to heat a whole whopping mL of liquid21:11
gene_hackerand sufficiently accurate, sufficiently sized robots exist for extracting nanoliters from well plates21:12
kanzureare there well plates that have microfluidic channels built in?21:12
gene_hackerthen this shouldn't be too hard to do21:12
gene_hackerno21:12
gene_hackeras long as 1024 different building blocks can be obtained21:13
gene_hackerthere are not21:13
gene_hackerplus in order to do something like that you'd need 1024 valves over a very large area21:14
gene_hackerif you move the valve to the well plate then you only need one21:14
kanzuregene_hacker: could i recruit you into this?21:14
gene_hackerpossibly21:14
gene_hackerI'd like to see that we can get 1024 different building blocks first or at least a demonstration with a couple21:15
gene_hackerI don't really have that much experience in microfluidics21:16
kanzurebtw, did you see delinquentme's liquid handling robot?21:17
kanzureinstrument21:17

delinquentme02 03 04 05 etc21:17
delinquentmekanzure, who do we have who are life extension computational biologists?21:18
delinquentmeim about to hit up michael rae to see who he knows21:18
yashgarothI thought michael rae starved to death21:18
delinquentmeO_o;;;21:19
yashgarothI saw him...3? years ago, he was more emaciated than most cancer patients I've seen21:19
yashgarothcaloric restriction21:19
kanzurecomputational biologists in life extension.. hrmmm21:20
gene_hackerany work on how long that robot last until needing maintenance?21:20
kanzureask steve coles21:20
kanzureabout the computational biology thing21:20
kanzureask delinquentme about the maintenance thing21:20
gene_hackerdelinquentme any idea how long that thing will last until needing maintenance?21:21
gene_hackerand any metrics of positional accuracy, repeatibility, etc?21:22
gene_hackeralso in the early stages of something like this we just need to get a few key parts working21:23
delinquentmegene_hacker, i havnt prototyped it21:23
gene_hackerlike high speed ligation and what not21:23
delinquentmesteve coles? got an email?21:24
gene_hackerany estimates?21:24
kanzuregene_hacker: sure.21:24
kanzurei think working on this one-part-at-a-time is important21:24
kanzureotherwise it will all break simultaneously21:24
gene_hackerI mean the important thing is the ligation and washing chip, and the well extraction to chip device21:25
delinquentmegene_hacker, So really it should have started out as a smaller project ... could have monetized quicker21:25
kanzurea macroworld well-to-chip would be too slow, i think21:25
gene_hackerand the 1024 different blocks21:25
kanzuremaybe ot21:25
kanzure*maybe not21:25
gene_hackerwell ligation takes about 30 seconds right?21:26
yashgarothhaha no21:26

kanzureit depends on reaction volume21:26
kanzureand many other variables21:26
kanzurebut i think you can get it down to a few seconds if you are very careful21:26
yashgarothI'd leave that as long as possible really21:27
yashgarothat least like 5 minutes21:27
delinquentmekanzure,  <3 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L._Stephen_Coles21:27
delinquentmegene_hacker, apologies im not sure if i answered all your questions .. theres a lot going on here21:27
gene_hackerreal world to chip is slow, but a lot easier to do than 1024 individually addressable microvalves21:28
gene_hackerI get the hang of it21:28
gene_hackerand after all, you're going for accuracy not speed21:29
kanzureyes21:29
yashgarothspeed is the first thing you'll be sacrificing if you don't have accuracy and money to spare, which I doubt we do21:29
kanzureehh there's some money to spare21:30
yashgarothif it's all computerized just run it overnight21:30
kanzureyep21:30
gene_hackeralso making a 2 wide microfluidic chip with 1024 vlaves at the LEAST, is insane21:30
gene_hackerin reality, we'd probably need much more than that to do multiplexing and what not.21:32
gene_hackereven with droplet based microfluidics it's insane21:32
delinquentmei like the part where Ghost in the shell21:40

delinquentmekanzure, have you ever tried to contact ben langmead of crossbow fame?21:50
kanzurenope haven't talked with him21:51
delinquentmehadoop or disco21:52
delinquentmeaka java or erlang21:52
delinquentmewell java erlang python21:52
delinquentmei might start programming deh java21:52
kanzurejava isn't hard to figure out21:53
delinquentmeI've programmed in it in HS21:56
