Summary
Luria-Bertani Medium (aka L-Broth or LB Medium). Standard growth medium for a variety of bacteria and conditions.
Ingredients
- 10 g Bacto-tryptone
- 5 g yeast extract
- 10 g NaCl
See also: Silver: LB Liquid
Protocol
- Mix dry ingredients and add distilled water up to 1 Liter
- Pour into 2 L flask (or greater)
- Autoclave (liquid cycle)
- 250°F, 22psi, 30 minutes
Notes: We do not pH medium when we make it on the fly. However, if it is really important, pH the medium to 7.0 with 5M NaOH (~200µL). We usually obtain this from the kitchen.
