LB medium for E. coli consisted of Peptone (10 g; Plato), Yeast Extract (5 g; Deutsche Hefewerke) and NaCl (5 g; Carl Roth). Deionized water was added to a final volume of 1 liter and pH was adjusted to 7.2. MacConkey agar was prepared according to the manufactures’ instructions (Carl Roth). Minimal media M9 for staphylococci consisted of Na2HPO4 (6 g; Carl Roth), KH2PO4 (3 g; Fisher Chemicals), NH4Cl (1 g; Merck Darmstadt, Germany) and NaCl (0.5 g; Carl Roth). Deionized water was added to a final volume of 1 L, the media was autoclaved and supplemented with thiamine (2 µg/mL; Sigma Aldrich, Munich, Germany), MgSO4 (1 mM; Carl Roth) and casamino acids (0.2%; BD Bioscience, Heidelberg, Germany). Cells were routinely grown at 37 °C either in liquid culture in baffled Erlenmeyer flasks (1:5 ratio) with shaking or on 1.5% agar plates.
K2hpo4
K2HPO4 is a chemical compound that is commonly used in laboratory settings. It is a white, crystalline powder that is soluble in water. K2HPO4 is a chemical salt with the formula K2HPO4, which consists of two potassium ions and one hydrogen phosphate ion.

Cultivation Protocols for Diverse Bacterial Isolates
cultivated at room temperature on R-2A agar (Sigma-Aldrich) or at 28°C in
R-2A broth (0.5 g yeast extract (Oxoid), 0.5 g Proteose peptone No. 3 (Becton,
Dickinson and Company), 0.5 g Casamino acids (Becton, Dickinson and Company),
0.5 g D-glucose monohydrate (Sigma-Aldrich), 0.5 g starch (from potato, Fluka),
0.3 g sodium pyruvate (Sigma-Aldrich), 0.3 g K2HPO4(AppliChem) and 0.05 g magnesium sulfate heptahydrate (Sigma-Aldrich) dissolved
in 1 L deionized water), both supplemented after sterilization with 0.5% (v/v)
methanol (R-2A+M). Minimal medium was prepared as described previously66 (link) and supplemented with 5 mM
maltose (Fluka). For Leaf374 cultivation, minimal medium agar was supplemented
with vitamins (500 μg L-1 D-pantothenic acid hemi calcium
salt, 100 μg L-1 biotin, 400 μg L-1riboflavin, 400 μg L-1 thiamine HCl, 200 μg
L-1 pyridoxal HCl 150 μg L-1 p-amino benzoic
acid, 200 μg L-1 cobalamin, 50 μg L-1 lipoic
acid, 150 μg L-1 nicotinic acid and 100 μg
L-1 folic acid). For selective growth of Leaf272, R-2A+M was
supplemented with 50 μg mL-1 rifampicin (Sigma-Aldrich), since
this strain has a natural resistance towards this antibiotic.
E. coli BL21 (DE3) gold was cultivated in LB-Lennox at
37°C supplemented with 50 μg mL-1 kanamycin sulfate
(AppliChem).

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.
