Batch Notes

001

This is the first batch attempting to fully standardize competent cell production. Also Kitwa's first batch! And a resounding success!

The efficiency test/test transformation used a single 250ul aliquot (randomly chosen). Three transformations were done using our standard template and protocol. Important: In following productions we will test the first and last of the aliquots.

Notes: While ODing culture, cells were not kept on ice/stored in fridge. Poured into centrifuge tubes on ice, but tubes were not pre-chilled.

002

OD600nm value at 15.5 hours was 0.26, and cells were re-placed in the shaker for another 0.5 hours. OD value afterward was 0.40.

Notes: While ODing culture, cells were not kept on ice/stored in fridge. Poured into centrifuge tubes on ice, but tubes were not pre-chilled.

003

OD600nm value at 15.5 hours was 0.16, and cells were re-placed in the shaker for another 0.5 hours. OD value afterward was 0.23.

Notes: While ODing culture, cells were not kept on ice/stored in fridge. Poured into centrifuge tubes on ice, but tubes were not pre-chilled.

004

Cells grew very slowly; low OD even after 18 hours of culture. Batch was discarded.

005

Cells grew very slowly; low OD even after 18 hours of culture. Batch was discarded.

006

Media was inoculated at 4pm on Day 1 to allow for longer growth period. Cells grown in 1L flask. Cells were OD'ed multiple times: 16 hours (0.12), 16.5 hours (0.12), 18.5 hours (0.15), and 21 hours (0.28).

007

Media was inoculated at 4pm on Day 1 to allow for longer growth period. Cells grown in 1L flask. Cells were OD'ed multiple times: 16 hours (0.13), 16.5 hours (0.14), 18.5 hours (0.22), and 20 hours (0.23).
