Materials required
The materials mentioned below is used to make up 1 liter of the standard LB agar plates:
- 10 g of tryptoptan
- 5 g of yeast
- 5 g of NaCl
- 15 g of agar
The materials mentioned is used to make up 1 liter of LB starch agar plates:
- 10 g of tryptoptan
- 5 g of yeast
- 5 g of NaCl
- 15 g of agar
- 10 g of starch
Protocol
- Dissolve the materials in 800 ml of distilled water. ( Note : The agar will not dissolve in distilled water. )
- After most of the materials are dissolved, top up the final volume to 1 liter with distilled water.
- Autoclave the mixture.
- After autoclaving, allow the mixture to cool down before adding the appropriate antibiotic.
- Pour appropriately 25 ml of the mixture into petri dishes.
Note: Aseptic technique must be employed after the autoclave part.
