Culture and growth conditions
culture medium
| @ref | name | growth | composition |
|---|---|---|---|
| 18281 | COLE AGAR | yes | Ingredients: CaCl2 x 2 H2O 1.3g Agar (Difco) 15.0g Distilled water 1000.0ml Preparation / Remarks: pH 7.2 (KOH) autoclaved Pour the plates and streak living E.coli cells |
| 18281 | KAN 4 AGAR | no | Ingredients: Agar (Difco) 1.5% CaCl2 0.1% Cycloheximide 2.5 mg per 100 ml Preparation / Remarks: pH 7.2 (KOH) autoclaved w-agar with 2.5 mg of cycloheximide per 100 ml, the antibiotic is filter sterilized and added to the agar just before pouring Cycloheximide does not seem to affect growth of myxobakteria, whereas fungi and amoebae are often inhibited. Combine with 250 mg/L Kanamycin-sulfate (sterilized by filtration) |
