Soil
We put 100µL of each culture on MacConkey plate with specific antbiotic (Control +):
- 1696: Tetracyclin
- 1693: Spectinomycine
- 1320: Chloramphenicol
We put 30 mL of each culture in 60g of non sterile soil in a pot.
- 1696: 3 pots
- 1693: 3 pots
- 1320: 3 pots
We put 30 mL of clean LB in 60g of non sterile soil in a pot (Control -)
- LB: 3 pots
After this contamination, we take 1g of each pot to make the J0 measurement. We dilute it in 5mL of sterile H2O, and shake it during 5 min. Then, we let it to decant during 15 min. We take 50µL of the supernatant, and dilute it in 950µL of Sterile H2O (complete dilution from the soil is now at 10-2) We put 100µL of this previous dilution on plates that fits. We incubate plates over night at 37°C
Pots are placed in trays: 1 strain by tray. Trays are covered by a shrink-wrap, and we let them in room temperature
Water
We test two different water: seawater, from the Atlantic ocean, and stagnant water from Orsay's pool. For each water, we make dilutions: 10-1, 10-2, 10-3 and 10-4 We 100µL of different dilution on each type of plate:
- LB without antibiotic
- LB + Spectinomycin
- LB + tetracyclin
- LB + Chloramphenicol
- MacConkey without antibiotic
- MacConkey + Spectinomycin
- MacConkey + Tetracyclin
- MacConkey + Chloramphenicol
We incubate plates over night at 37°C
