Protocol Notes

  1. Inject 1 mL of sterile DI water into vial and gently mix.
  2. Use small portions of vial (liquid) contents to inoculate a sterile, liquid culture to an initial OD of 0.03-0.1. For this liquid culture, use the specified growth medium with or without an antibiotic as appropriate.
  3. When culture has visibly grown in liquid medium, plate on solid (Agar) growth medium and incubate at 37C. Maintain strain.
