1. collect liquid culture
1.1 Prepare overnight culture of inducer cell at 37°C for 12hours.
1.2 Take 30μl of the overnight culture of inducer cell into LB(3ml) + antibiotics (Amp 50μg/ml + Kan 30μg/ml).(→fresh culture)
1.3 Incubate the flesh culture of inducer cell until the observed OD600 reaches around 0.50. Centrifuge the cell at 5000g, 25°C, 1 min, suspend it with 1ml LB + antibiotics (Amp 50μg/ml).
1.4 Take 30μl cell suspensions into LB(3ml) + antibiotics (Amp 50μg/ml + Kan 30μg/ml) + 5μM 3OC6HSL(3μl) and LB(3ml) + antibiotics (Amp 50μg/ml + Kan 30μg/ml) + DMSO(3μl).
1.5 Incubate the 3OC12HSL producer cells for another 4 hours at 37°C.
1.6 Centrifuge the 3OC12HSL producer cells at 9000g, 4°C, 1 min, and filter the cultured cells.
1.7 Dilute the filtrate by LB + antibiotics (Amp + Kan) in 1:30.
2Reporter assay
2.1 Prepare overnight culture of reporter cell at 37°C for 12hours.
2.2 Take 30μl of the overnight culture of reporter cell into LB(3ml) + antibiotics (Amp 50μg/ml + Kan 30μg/ml). (→fresh culture)
2.3 Incubate the flesh culture of reporter cell until the observed OD600 reaches around 0.50, and gather the supernatant of culture of inducer cell.
2.4 Centrifuge the reporter cell at 5000g, 25°C, 1 min, and take it into LB + antibiotics (Amp 50μg/ml + Kan 30μg/ml).
2.5 Add 30μl samples of process 2.4 to filtrate + LB(3ml) + antibiotics (Amp 50μg/ml + Kan 30μg/ml) from process 1.7
