8 15 2015 Actin CTM2 reps qPCR

Today I ran replicates of all populations and all treatments to generate data about expression values. Here I ran Actin. To save on cDNA I stopped running full replicates of the Control and Temperature samples with the mech stress samples. I run partials made up of 8 samples for Control and 8 of Heat. 

Primers:

1505Ol_Act_FGACCAGCCAAATCCAGACGABC6/13/2012205560O.luridaActin, adductor muscle

Melt Curve
The amplification curves look good but the melt curve has a double bump which looks terrible.  I'm not sure why this happened. It appears in all the samples. 

You can see the raw ct values here and the raw data here
