General description
Terrific Broth is a highly-referenced microbial growth medium used for the cultivation of E. coli. This nutrient-rich microbial broth contains glycerol, peptides, amino acids, water-soluble vitamins, and carbohydrates.
Application
Suitable for non-selective cultivation of E. coli strains for cloning, high yield DNA plasmid production and high yield production of recombinant proteins. Also suitable for selective cultivation when appropriate antibiotics are added.
Terrific broth has been used:
Terrific broth has been used:
- as a medium for selective growth of E.coli BL21 (DE3) V2RpRARE expressing MLL SET (nuclear proto-oncogene) domain in pET28GST-LIC
- to grow BL21 (DE3) cells containing plasmid expressing IL-8 (interleukin-8)
- Terrific broth is also suitable for use in bacterial suspension (Bacillus subtilis strain 1085B)
Features and Benefits
Terrific Broth EZMix® powder provides:
- Granulated, dust-free format for safer handling and faster mixing
- A budget-friendly alternative to liquid
