50mL LB + 500µL Arabinose* + 50µL Ampicillin**
*2mg/mL of Arabinose Stock Solution
**100mg/mL of Ampicillin Stock Solution
Note: Some formulations of SOB use 10 mM MgCl2 and 10 mM MgSO4 instead of 20 mM MgSO4.
SOB medium is also available dry premixed from Difco, 0443-17.
Adjust to pH 7.5 prior to use. This requires approximately 25 ml of 1M NaOH per liter.
15/10 medium
Growth of competent TOP10 cells in Example 2 of the Bloom05 patent is performed in 15/10 broth, which is similar to SOB:
For E. coli cell lysis, use a freshly prepared lysozyme solution (10 mg/ml) in 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0.
Reagent Solution:Prepare using ATP free water. Combine 1 mM luciferin or luciferin salt, 3 mM ATP and 15 mM MgSO4 in 30mM HEPES buffer, pH 7.8. Store substrate solution at -20ºC in polypropylene or glass.
Preparing 1mM D-Luciferin:Directions for a 5 mg sample: Dissolve 0.034 gr dithiothreitol in 22 mL of QH2O. Add 0.2 mL of this DTT solution to the 5 mg d-luciferin. Add 4 uL of 10M NaOH to dissolve the luciferin. Dilute this into the remaining 21.8 mL of DTT solution and store as aliquots at - 80 ºC in darkness until use.
