EBY100 yeast (ATCC) were cultured at 30°C with shaking in YPD media (Sigma) and selected in media containing glucose and casamino acids (SDCAA): 1L deionize water with 20g dextrose (Sigma), 6.7g yeast nitrogen base (RPI), 5g Bacto casamino acids (Gibco), 10.4g sodium citrate (Sigma), and 6.4g citric acid monohydrate (Sigma), pH 4.5. Expression was induced at 20°C with shaking in galactose containing media (SGCAA) which resembles SDCAA but includes 20g galactose (Sigma) instead of glucose.

Biofilm Development in CDC Bioreactors

Replicate Centre for Disease Control (CDC) bioreactors were used to develop biofilms on CS coupons over 2 weeks (Figure 1). Anaerobic conditions were generated by constant pure N2 gas injection. A solution temperature of 30 °C and gentle agitation were maintained using a stirring hotplate set to 50 rpm. Continuous nutrient replenishment was achieved using a 5 L reservoir cell connected to a peristaltic pump. The pump was calibrated to replace 30% of the reactor solution in each reactor every 24 h. ASW solution as described elsewhere [24 (link),29 (link)] was used for the experiments with the following supplementation: 10 mM Bacto™ casamino acids (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), 10 mM sodium pyruvate, 10 mM D (+) glucose and 30 mM ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). Nutrient concentrations were established to allow rapid progression of biofilm development without promoting transition of the population to the planktonic lifestyle. Sampling was conducted after 2 weeks of CS exposure to the consortium.

Microbiological Consortium for Corrosion Studies

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A consortium comprising Shewanella chilikensis strain DC57, Pseudomonas balearica strain EC28 and a laboratory strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae was employed in this research based on growth characteristics described in previous work [25 (link)]. S. chilikensis DC57 and P. balearica EC28 were recently recovered from corroded steel in a marine industrial facility where MIC was implicated [26 (link)]. Pure bacterial strains were cultivated in artificial seawater (ASW) as previously described [27 ,28 ], and supplemented with Bacto™ casamino acids (10 mM, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), sodium pyruvate (10 mM), D  (+)  glucose (10 mM) and ammonium nitrate (NH4NO330 mM). After 24–48 h of incubation at 30 °C, the cultures were harvested in log phase and manually counted using a Neubauer haemocytometer before washing twice in ASW at 12,000 rpm. Cell pellets were resuspended in ASW before inoculation into reactor media. The final cell number used for all reactors was 1 × 105 cells/mL of each isolate.

SOC medium containing 0.5% (w/v) yeast extract, 2% (w/v) tryptone, 10 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM KCl, 20 mM MgCl2 and 20 mM D-glucose was used to recover E. coli and Salmonella cells following transformation. LB medium containing 0.5% (w/v) yeast extract, 1% (w/v) tryptone and 0.5% (w/v) NaCl supplemented with antibiotics at appropriate concentrations were used to grow E. coli and Salmonella strains. 2% (w/v) agarose was added to made the corresponding LB plates. SPI-2 inducing medium (pH 5.8) containing 170 mM 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid, 5 mM KCl, 7.5 mM (NH4)2SO4, 0.5 mM K2SO4, 1 mM KH2PO4, 8 μM MgCl2, 38 mM Glycerol and 0.1% (w/v) Bacto™ Casamino Acids (ThermoFisher Scientific, Cat# 223050) was used for Salmonella in vitro assay. DMEM (Gibco) containing 4 mM L-glutamine, 4,500 mg/L glucose, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, and 1,500 mg/L sodium bicarbonate, and additionally supplemented with 10% (w/v) fetal calf serum (FCS, Biochrom), 1% (w/v) sodium pyruvate, and antibiotics at appropriate concentrations was used to grow HeLa cells for Salmonella infection. Antibiotics were added at final concentrations of 100 μg/mL for Amp, 34 μg/mL for Cm, 50 μg/mL for Kan, 100 μg/mL for Hyg and 10 or 50 μg/mL gentamicin (Gm) for E. coli and S. Typhimurium. Final concentrations of 1 mM for IPTG and 20 mM for L-arabinose were used to induce the Sth1Cas9n base editor.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
