Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Throughout this study, E. coli K-12 strain MG1655 and its derivatives (see Table S1 in the supplemental material) were used. Cultures were typically grown aerobically overnight (ca. 16 h) to stationary phase in lysogeny broth (LB) (59 ) on an orbital shaker (200 rpm) at 37°C or at 30°C when required during strain construction. Late-exponential-phase cultures were obtained by diluting stationary-phase cultures 1/100 or 1/1,000 in fresh LB or AB medium (60 (link)) (supplemented with 10 μg/mL thiamine, 5 μg/mL uracil, and 0.5% Casamino Acids) and allowing growth for 3 to 4 h. When appropriate, the medium was supplemented with a final concentration of 100 μg/mL ampicillin (Fisher Scientific), 30 μg/mL chloramphenicol (Acros Organics), 50 μg/mL kanamycin (Applichem), or 0.2% arabinose (Acros Organics).

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.
