Common Applications
Storage

SOBAG Agar Plates with 2% glucose and Ampicillin-100 are solid media formulated for cultivation and selection of ampicillin-resistant E. coli. The SOB base provides yeast extract and tryptone as nutrient sources, sodium chloride for osmotic balance, and magnesium ions; agar serves as the gelling agent. Glucose supplies a readily metabolizable carbon source, and 100 µg/mL ampicillin sodium salt enables selection of plasmid-bearing transformants.

Recommended for routine propagation and maintenance of ampicillin-resistant E. coli strains in applications requiring a glucose-supplemented SOB agar platform with antibiotic selection.

  • 0.50% Yeast Extract
  • 2.00% Tryptone
  • 0.05% Sodium Chloride
  • 10mM Magnesium Chloride
  • 2.00% Cerelose Anhydrous Dextrose (Glucose)
  • 1.50% Agar
  • 100µg/mL Ampicillin Sodium Salt
  • Ampicillin-Resistant Escherichia coli Selection: Isolates transformants carrying AmpR plasmids on rich, glucose- and magnesium-supplemented agar.

  • Transformation Recovery: Supports high-efficiency recovery and outgrowth of competent Escherichia coli after heat shock or electroporation.

  • Molecular Cloning: Enables colony picking and expansion of recombinant Escherichia coli for downstream plasmid prep.

  • Colony PCR Screening: Provides selective plates for rapid screening of Escherichia coli transformants via colony PCR.

  • Plasmid Maintenance: Maintains selection pressure to preserve AmpR plasmids in laboratory Escherichia coli strains.

  • CFU Enumeration: Quantifies transformation efficiency by counting colonies of Escherichia coli on selective media.

  • Library Screening: Screens combinatorial or genomic libraries in Escherichia coli under ampicillin selection.

  • Expression Pre-screening: Selects recombinant Escherichia coli clones prior to liquid culture induction studies.

  • Antibiotic Selection Controls: Verifies ampicillin activity and negative controls in Escherichia coli workflows.

  • Glycerol Stock Preparation: Sources single, selective colonies of Escherichia coli for long-term storage.
