Glycerol for freezing aliquots

We use sterile 80% glycerol in water. We dilute this 1:3 (400ul 80% glycerol; 1200ul culture) for creating freezer stocks with a final glycerol concentration of 20%.

10x PBS

Used to create 1x PBS for dilution or washing cells of any species.

For 1 liter:

    • NaCl 80g
    • KCl 2g
    • Na2HPO4 14.4g
    • KH2PO4 2.4g

Stir salts with MilliQ water. This may take a significant time to dissolve!

Adjust pH with NaOH to 7.4. This will take a significant amount of NaOH; add in 200ul increments.
