S.O.C. (Super Optimal broth with Catabolite repression) Medium is used in the final step of bacterial cell transformation to obtain maximal transformation efficiency of E. coli.

LB Broth Base (Lennox formulation) is a popular, rich medium used to cultivate bacteria and perform coliphage plaque assays.

2-YT Broth is a nutrient-rich microbial growth medium used for cultivation of E. coli and growth of hosts for replication of M13 vectors.

X-Gal (5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-D-galactoside) is a histochemical substrate for β-galactosidase. This substrate yields a blue precipitate upon hydrolysis, making it suitable for use in immunoblotting or immunocytochemical assays.

Bluo-Gal (halogenated indolyl-β-galactoside) is an alternative histochemical substrate for β-galactosidase that produces a darker blue color than X-gal, the more frequently used substrate.

LB Agar (Lennox L agar) is a solid agar media powder recommended for the general maintenance and growth of E. coli strains.

Agar is a mixture of polysaccharides extracted from red seaweed cell walls. It has unique gelling properties that are utilized in many industrial and laboratory applications.

Terrific Broth is a nutritionally rich bacterial medium for higher density growth and maintenance of recombinant E. coli strains.

Luria broth (LB) is a popular, rich medium used to cultivate bacteria and to perform coliphage plaque assays.

LB broth (Lennox formulation) is a ready-to-use liquid growth medium used for bacterial culture.

Base medium for preparation of minimal and synthetic defined yeast media
