Antibiotic Concentrations

The following list shows recommended antibiotic concentrations for LB media or agar plates.

Antibiotic Concentration
Ampicillin 100 μg/mL
Bleocin 5 μg/mL
Carbenicillin 100 μg/mL
Chloramphenicol 25 μg/mL
Coumermycin 25 μg/mL
Gentamycin 10 μg/mL
Kanamycin 50 μg/mL
Spectinomycin 50 μg/mL
Tetracycline T7 10 μg/mL


Example: To make 100 mL of LB/ampicillin growth media, add 100 μL of a 100 mg/mL ampicillin stock (1000X stock) to 100 mL of LB.
