Recipes
Media
Recipes for liquid and solid media for bacterial cultivation. Stir until dissolved; sterilize by autoclaving 121°C. Do not forget a magnetic stirrer.
LB-Medium
- 1% (w/v) bacto tryptone
- 0.5% (w/v) bacto yeast extract
- 1% (w/v) NaCl
- if required: ad 1% (w/v) agar
M9 Swimming Agar
- 1.25% (v/v) glycerol
- 20% (v/v) 5x M9 salt stock solution
- 0.1% (v/v) of CaCl2 - 2H2O stock solution (20 mg/mL)
- 0.1% (v/v) MgSO4 stock solution (0.12 g/mL)
- 0.3 % (w/v) of agar
Tryptone swimming agar
- 1% (w/v) bacto tryptone
- 0.5% (w/v) NaCl
- 0.3% (w/v) agar
Antibiotics
- Stock solutions and concentrations of antibiotics.
| Reagent | Abbreviation | Stock Conc. [mg/mL] | Working Conc. [µg/mL] | Dilution | Solvent | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ampicillin | Amp | 100 | 100 | 1,000x | ddH2O | Culture plates with Amp can be stored at 4°C for about 2 weeks. Stock solutions can be stored at 4°C for 2 weeks but can last as long as 4-6 months when stored at -20°C. |
| Chloramphenicol | Cm | 20 | 20 | 1,000x | EtOH | |
| Kanamycin | Kan | 50 | 50 | 1,000x | ddH2O | Plates may only last a few weeks at 4°C. |

Buffer and Solution
Recipes for stocks of buffers and solutions.
5x M9 salts stock solution
| Amount | Substance | |
|---|---|---|
| 64 g | Na2HPO4 × 7 H2O | |
| 15 g | KH2PO4 | |

| 5.0 g | NH4Cl | |
| ad 1000 ml | ddH2O |
- Stir until dissolved; sterilize by autoclaving at 121°C.
CaCl2 Buffer for competent cells
| Amount | Substance | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 7.351 g | CaCl2 × 7 H2O | Alternative 0.1 M CaCl2. |
| 15% | Glycerol | |
| ad 500 ml | ddH2O |
- Stir until dissolved; sterilize by sterile filtration.
50x TAE for agarose gels
| Amount | Substance | |
|---|---|---|
| 242 g | Tris base | |
| 57.1 ml | Glacial acetic acid | |
| 18.6 g | EDTA | |
| ad 1000 ml | ddH2O |
- Stir until dissolved. Working concentration is 1x (40 ml of 50x stock ad 2 l 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
The glycerol stock is prepared as follow:
- 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!
