Procedure
 +
 +
Inoculate a single colony into 5ml Lb in 50ml falcon tube. Grown O/N @ 37oC
 +
 +
Use 1ml to inoculate 100ml of LB in 250ml bottle the next morning.
 +
 +
Shake @ 37oC for 1.5-3 hours.

Then…
 +
 +
 +
 +
Put the cells on ice for 10mins (keep cold from now on).
 +
 +
Collect the cells by centrifugation in the big centrifuge for 3 minutes @ 6Krpm.
 +
 +
Decant supernatant and gently resuspend on 10ml cold 0.1M CaCl (cells sensitive to mechanical disruption).
 +
 +
Incubate on ice x 20 minutes
 +
 +
Centrifuge as in 2.
 +
 +
Discard supernatant and gently resuspend on 5ml cold 0.1M CaCl/15%Glycerol.
 +
 +
Dispense in microtubes (300ųl/tube). Freeze at -80oC.
