LB media: (1L total) Ingredients: Tryptone 10g, Yeast extract 5g, NaCl 10g, MilliQ water to 1000ml. Methods: Dissolved 10g tryptone, 5g yeast extract and 10g NaCl in 800 mL MilliQ water, making use of a magnetic stirrer. Once dissolved, brought volume up to 1L using MilliQ water. Autoclaved 1000ml of the solution (121°C, 15 min, standard liquid cycle).
