Uses
Suitable for non-selective cultivation of
E. coli strains for cloning, DNA plasmid production and production of recombinant proteins. Also suitable for selective cultivation when appropriate antibiotics are added.
Uses
LB Broth (Lennox) has been used for culturing
Escherichia coli and bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs).
Uses
LB Broth (Lennox) is nutritionally rich medium developed by Lennox for the growth and maintenance of pure culture of recombinant strains of E. coli. It is a rich growth medium that contains all the nutritional requirements for E.Coli stains. In the formula, Tryptone provides nitrogen, vitamins, minerals and amino acids essential for growths. Yeast extract is source of vitamins, particularly the B-group. Sodium chloride supplies essential electrolytes for transport and osmotic balance.
General Description
Lennox LB is a highly-referenced microbial growth medium used for the cultivation of
E. coli. This nutrient-rich microbial broth contains peptides, amino acids and carbohydrates in a low-salt formulation.
