Buffer and Solution

Recipes for stocks of buffers and solutions.

5x M9 salts stock solution

Stir until dissolved; sterilize by autoclaving at 121°C.

Amount!Substance
Na2HPO4 × 7 H2O
KH2PO4
NaCl
NH4Cl
ddH2O

CaCl2 Buffer for competent cells

Stir until dissolved; sterilize by sterile filtration.

Amount Substance Notes
7.351 g CaCl2 × 7 H2O Alternative 0.1 M CaCl2.
15% Glycerol
ad 500 ml ddH2O

50x TAE for agarose gels

Stir until dissolved. Working concentration is 1x (40 ml of 50x stock ad 2 l ddH2O).

Amount Substance
242 g Tris base
57.1 ml Glacial acetic acid
18.6 g EDTA
ad 1000 ml ddH2O

E. coli

Strains

E. coli strain list - List of the working E. coli strains including genotypes, genetic markers, and alleles.

Storage

Storage of E. coli strains - How to keep E. coli strains.

  • Glycerol Stock
    • 900 µl over night culture in LB-liquid medium
    • 900 µl 50% sterile glycerol

Glycerol is extremely viscous. Hence, use cut off tips to pipette. Glycerol stocks were vortexed to ensure uniformly mixture and shock frozen in N2 or dry ice. Then, cultures were stored at -80°C. Do NOT forget to fill in the according GMO S1 construction sheet!
