Notes
Source: JCM | Link: https://www.jcm.riken.jp/cgi-bin/jcm/jcm_grmd?GRMD=675 Superseded historical provenance (not a current formulation claim): Commercial Product: LB Medium (Luria-Bertani, Miller formulation) Supplier: Multiple suppliers (Difco,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 The earlier LB commercial-product expansion is superseded: the exact recipe specifies a methylbutyric acid input instead. Remove only the reviewed LB supplier nodes, preserving genuine peptone, yeast extract and salt entries. Restore the acid at its source preparation stage, without inventing a chemical ID.

Preparation

  1. Boil and cool under CO2. Under a gentle stream of CO2, add 4.0 g Na2CO3, 1.0 ml fatty acid mixture (see below) and 500 mg L-cysteine x HCl x H2O.
  2. Adjust pH to 7.0, distribute into appropriate vessels under N2 and autoclave.
