Overview

This a protocol for preparing and handling E. coli cells for electroporation. This protocol has mostly been adapted from the Noyes Lab protocol. A simpler protocol from NEB does exist though it did not work for me initially. I have, however, used a similar protocol in the past with good results, so it's linked to in the 'Notes' section.

Materials

Stock Solutions

Stock Solution 1

  • This is a very simple solution, so we only need a one line description of how to make it.

Stock Solution 2

This is a more involved solution, so we will describe how to make it in several steps:

  1. Step 1
  2. Step 2
  3. Step 3

Protocol
