===Creating Agar Plates===

Before any real lab work could begin some supplies had to be created, including a selection of agar plates. We needed two different types of agar plates, some with ampicillin antibiotics and others with kanamycin antibiotics. To manage this we created 2 separate agar solutions, a 200mL mixture for the ampicillin plates and a 400mL mixture for the kanamycin plates. The protocol we followed for the creation of the agar solutions was as follows:

*Mix together the following amounts to create 200mL agar solution:

**2g Peptones

**2g NaCl

**1g Yeast extract
 +
**3g Agar

**Fill the container up to 200mL with demineralised water.

**Fill the container up to 400mL with demineralised water.

*Next the containers were autoclaved and allowed to cool, but not harden.

*Before pouring the plates the correct antibiotics were added. The concentration of the ampicillin antibiotics was 100ηg/µL and that of the kanamycin antibiotics was 30ηg/µL.

Creating Agar Plates

Before any real lab work could begin some supplies had to be created, including a selection of agar plates. We needed two different types of agar plates, some with ampicillin antibiotics and others with kanamycin antibiotics. To manage this we created 2 separate agar solutions, a 200mL mixture for the ampicillin plates and a 400mL mixture for the kanamycin plates. The protocol we followed for the creation of the agar solutions was as follows:

  • Mix together the following amounts to create 200mL agar solution:
    • 2g Peptones
    • 2g NaCl
    • 1g Yeast extract
    • 3g Agar
    • Fill the container up to 200mL with demineralised water.
  • For a 400mL solution mix together:
    • 4g Peptones
    • 4g NaCl
    • 2g Yeast extract
    • 6g Agar
    • Fill the container up to 400mL with demineralised water.
  • Next the containers were autoclaved and allowed to cool, but not harden.
  • Before pouring the plates the correct antibiotics were added. The concentration of the ampicillin antibiotics was 100ηg/µL and that of the kanamycin antibiotics was 30ηg/µL.
