Producing high yields of B.subtilis spores

Preparation

Plate and grow B. subtilis overnight on antibiotic resistant plates.

Method

  • Pick a sing colony from a new plate of B. subtilis and use to inoculate 50ml * CDSM.
  • Grow this for 11 hours in a 37oC incubator with vigorous aeration.
  • Transfer 2-5% of this to make up another 50ml volume of * CDSM culture and grow both for a total incubation time of 48 hours.
  • Longer incubation may be needed for full release of spores.
