Notes
Bromo-chloro-indolyl-galactopyranoside X-gal 20mg/ml Dimethylformamide (DMF) 250x Use DMF in a chemical hood
Isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside IPTG 0.1M H2O 1000x Light sensitive. Molecular weight: 238.31 g/mol

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.


Tris Buffer

For Tris buffer at pH 8.0 (at 25 degrees)

  • 4.44 g/L Tris HCl
  • 2.65 g/L Tris Base

Do not adjust pH or check the pH with the MEE lab pH probe. This will destroy the probe!
