50 mg/mL Ampicillin is a beta-lactam antibiotic stock used in molecular biology and microbiology workflows. It inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by targeting penicillin-binding proteins, and is commonly applied for maintaining plasmids that carry beta-lactamase genes in E. coli and related hosts.

Typical working concentrations in liquid or solid media are 50–200 µg/mL, with 100 µg/mL frequently used for plasmid selection in E. coli. Store at -20°C, protected from light; avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles. Prepare media and supplements using aseptic technique.

  • 50mg/mL Ampicillin Sodium Salt
  • Antibiotic Selection in Cloning: Selects for AmpR plasmids in transformed Escherichia coli cultures.

  • Plasmid Maintenance: Maintains selection pressure for AmpR vectors in liquid cultures of Escherichia coli.

  • LB Agar Plate Preparation: Supplements LB agar to create ampicillin plates for colony selection of Escherichia coli.

  • Protein Expression Workflows: Preserves plasmid-bearing expression strains of Escherichia coli during induction.

  • Blue-White Screening: Used with X-Gal/IPTG on ampicillin plates for lacZ α-complementation in Escherichia coli.

  • Bacterial Transformation Workflows: Enables selection of successful transformants in Escherichia coli after ligation or recombination.

  • Contamination Control in Bacterial Media: Suppresses growth of ampicillin-sensitive bacteria in routine culture media.
