1. Solution Il and N3 Buffer if problems are encountered with strains such as TG1 and Top10F Inoculation Bacterial cultures for plasmid preparations should always be grown from a single colony picked from a freshly streaked plate Subculturing directly from glycerol stock or liquid cultures may lead to uneven yields or plasmid loss Optimal results are obtained by using one single isolated colony from a freshly transformed or freshly streaked plate to inoculate an appropriate volume of starter culture containing the appropriate antibiotic and then incubated for 12 16 at 37 C with vigorous shaking 300 rpm shaking incubator Note Aeration is very important The culture volume should not exceed 1 4 the volume of the container Culture Media E Z N A FastFilter Plasmid DNA Mega Kits are specially designed for use with cultures grown in Luria Bertani LB medium Richer broths such as TB Terrific Broth or 2 x YT lead to high cell densities that can overload the purification system and therefore are not recommended If rich media has to be used growth times have to be optimized and the recommended culture volumes must be reduced to match the capacity of the HiBind DNA Mega Column Note As culture ages DNA yield may begin to decrease due to cell death and lysis within the culture Recommended Settings Culture Volume and Cell Density Do Not Exceed Maximum Recommended Culture Volumes For optimal plasmid yields the starting
