Media
LB medium
- weight components
- 5 g/L NaCl
- 10 g/L tryptone
- 5 g/L yeast extract
- (15 g/L agar for plates)
- fill up to 1 L with deionized water
- mix well by shaking
- autoclave
- autoclaving tape, caps slightly unscrewed
- base of the pot has to be covered with deionized water
- close lid
- heat level 3 until the pressure valve opens
- reduce heat level to 1.5
- set timer to 20 minutes
- turn heater off
- wait until the pressure valve retracts (30-45 minutes)
- open, close caps & shake
- for plates, wait until you can touch the bottle (<60 °C, clean bench!)
- add antibiotics and shake (gloves!)

Heat Shock
- thaw cells on ice
- add 1 µl of plasmid DNA
- incubate on ice for 30'
- heat shock at 42 °C for 60
- incubate on ice for 5'
- add 200 µl of SOC media
- incubate at 37 °C for 2 h
- plate 20 and 200 µl on plates with the appropiate antibiotic

SDS-PAGE
For some SDS-PAGEs we used BioRad ready made gels.
The recipe of the self-made SDS is as follows:
