Day 1
The week preceding the lab:
- Make LB:
- 10 g tryptone
- 5 g yeast extract
- 10 g NaCl
- 1 L deionized water
- autoclave 30 minutes
On the instructors' bench:
- 50 mL conical tubes
- 25 mL pipets
- a couple of motorized pipet aids
- 2 mL eppendorf tubes
- TBS: 500 mL
- PEG/NaCl: 500 mL
- deionized water: 50 mL
- quartz cuvettes
On the students' bench:"
- bucket of ice
- 2 x 40 mL overnight culture of XL1-Blue infected with M13 phage
- 250 mL erlenmeyer flask
By the scale:
- (NH4)2Fe(SO4)2
- stirbars
In 4 °C fridge:
- orbital shaker (speed 120)
Day 2
Between Day 1 and Day 2:
- 1 M pH 7.5 Na:PO4 solution:
- 2.6% Monosodium phosphate, monohydrate - 2.6 g per 100 mL
- 21.8% Disodium phosphate, heptahydrate - 21.8 g per 100 mL
- These are calculated values that will result in a 100 mL solution of pH 7.5
- 12-16 hours after phage-Fe incubation, add
On the instructors' bench:
- 50 mL conical tubes
- 15 mL conical tubes
- tweezers (2 per team)
- TEM grids for practice (some)
- new TEM grids (2 per team)
- sign-up sheet for location of samples in TEM holder
- 100% ethanol (20 μL per team, so a couple of 1.5 mL eppendorf tubes suffice)
On students' benches:
- Na:PO4
- M13 phage with(NH4)2Fe(SO4)2
