LB medium, a common bacterial growth medium for E.coli cells, is widely used in molecular biology.
- Molecular Biology Certified™
- Main components are Tryptone and Yeast Extract
- Nutritionally rich medium
- Supports growth of E. coli cells
- Contains essential electrolytes for transport and osmotic balance
Reagents are tested and chosen for their ability to promote optimum growth of E. coli when combined in LB Medium formulations. Chosen reagents are combined in the accurate proportions according to the LB formulation and thoroughly blended for a uniform distribution.
LB medium is the most widely used medium for the growth of bacteria. MP Biomedicals offers LB media in a variety of formats for convenience and ease of use. It is a rich Medium for the growth of E. coli and certified for plasmid and other bacterial cultures in liquid medium.
