Terrific Broth (TB) Agar with Carbenicillin-100 is a nutrient-rich solid medium formulated for growth and selection of carbenicillin-resistant E. coli strains. Glycerol serves as the primary carbon source, a potassium phosphate buffer maintains pH during cultivation, and 100 µg/mL carbenicillin disodium salt provides antibiotic selection for plasmid-bearing transformants. GMP manufactured.

  • 1.200% Tryptone
  • 2.400% Yeast Extract
  • 1.600% Glycerol
  • 1.254% Potassium Phosphate Dibasic
  • 0.231% Potassium Phosphate Monobasic
  • 1.500% Agar
  • 100µg/mL Carbenicillin Disodium Salt
  • Antibiotic Selection of Transformants: Selects plasmid-bearing Escherichia coli using 100 µg/mL carbenicillin in rich TB agar (1.200% tryptone, 2.400% yeast extract, 1.600% glycerol, 1.254% K2HPO4, 0.231% KH2PO4, 1.500% agar).

  • Post-Transformation Recovery and Plating: Supports high-efficiency colony formation after heat shock or electroporation under β-lactam selection.

  • Clonal Isolation and Streaking: Enables single-colony purification of recombinant Escherichia coli strains.

  • Blue-White Screening: Compatible with X-gal/IPTG for insert verification of lacZα-based vectors on carbenicillin plates.

  • Plasmid Maintenance: Stable propagation of ampicillin/carbenicillin-selectable plasmids with reduced satellite colony formation versus ampicillin.

  • Library Plating and Titering: Plating and enumeration of cDNA/genomic/mutagenesis libraries requiring rich medium and β-lactam selection.

  • Expression Construct Screening: Rapid screening of recombinant clones prior to liquid TB expression cultures.

  • Colony PCR Templates: Picking colonies for PCR-based insert verification directly from selective TB agar.

  • CFU Enumeration: Quantifying transformation efficiency and viable counts under carbenicillin selection.

  • Replica Plating: Transferring colonies to secondary selective conditions while maintaining carbenicillin resistance.
