Results of Chloramphenicol Testing

  • Chloramphenicol plates did not work.
  • Growth was observed on both the LB-only and LB+Chloramphenicol plates.
  • Both DB3.1 and DH5alpha cells grew on both sets of plates.
  • Could possibly be an issue with the concentration. See here.
    • This page states that chloramphenicol plates should be made at 100 µg/mL concentration rather than 25 µg/mL.
    • To do this, we would need to plate 80 µL on each LB plate rather than 20 µL.
  • New plates will be made in the afternoon.

Testing of Chloramphenicol at 100 µg/mL Concentration

  • Used two LB-agar plates
    • One for LB-only control
    • One for LB + Chlor-100 test
  • Plated 80 µL of 25 mg/mL chloramphenicol onto 20 mL LB agar plate for a final concentration of 100 µg/mL
  • Let dry for 1 hour.
