, Abstract:
The objective of the experiment was to apply the pGLO plasmid to transform E.
coli bacteria in order to introduce the gene for ampicillin resistance and Green
Fluorescent Protein (GFP). By introducing foreign DNA into a cell, a process known as
genetic transformation, bacteria can develop new characteristics including antibiotic
resistance and fluorescence. The absorption of the pGLO plasmid by E. coli cells was
