Heat Shock Transformation

Materials


Equipment

  • - Heatingbad
  • - Incubator


Chemicals & consumables

  • - Ice
  • - Pipets + steril tips
  • - dYT Medium
  • - LB-Agar-Plates + antibiotics


Procedure


  1. Defrost stocks of competent cells (100 µL in 1.5 ml Eppendorf tube) on ice.
  2. Add the DNA and incubate the suspension for 5 minutes on ice.
  3. Heat shock is done by incubating the cells for 1 minute at 42°C.
  4. Add 1 mL of DYT medium and incubate for 1 hour at 37°C in order to obtain antibiotic resistance.
  5. Finally the cells are ready to be crossed out.
