Notes
Source: DSMZ Superseded historical provenance (not a current formulation claim): Commercial Product: LB Medium (Luria-Bertani, Miller formulation) Supplier: Multiple suppliers (Difco, Sigma, etc.) Catalog: Multiple (L3522 Sigma, 244520 BD) Source: https://www.laboratorynotes.com/preparation-of-luria-bertani-lb-miller-broth/ Accessed: 2026-03-28 Constituent composition researched from product specification. The false LB constituent expansion is withdrawn in favor of this source's bovine serum albumin input. Existing unrelated chemical annotations are preserved, not recertified. This repair does not assert equivalence with other BSK formulations or add organism-growth evidence.

12 Deionized water Deionized water: make up the complete medium to a final volume of 100 ml; this is not a fixed 100 ml water addition.

Preparation

  1. Combine the recipe ingredients. The source specifies a final medium volume of 100 ml, using deionized water as makeup; no separate makeup-versus-titration order is asserted.
  2. Adjust to pH 7.3 with 1 M NaOH.
  3. Filter-sterilize; the source specifies no filter pore size.

Solutions

NaOH solution (1 M)

Stock composition
IngredientConcentrationNotes
NaOH 1 MOLAR
Titrate to final pH 7.3. The 1 M value is titrant stock strength; no fixed dose or final-medium NaOH concentration is specified.

Target organisms
