Notes
Source: https://togomedium.org/medium/M2328 Original URL: https://www.dsmz.de/microorganisms/medium/pdf/DSMZ_Medium645.pdf Superseded historical provenance (not a current formulation claim): Commercial Product: LB Medium (Luria-Bertani, Miller formulation) Supplier: Multiple suppliers (Difco,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. False LB constituent expansion is withdrawn. Source-specific amounts and preparation boundaries supersede flattened concentrations. Existing chemical annotations and earlier history are preserved, not recertified; no organism-growth association is added. Source preparation context (main preparation): Sterilize for 15min by 121C cool to 50 - 55° C. Add 100 ml Middlebrook OADC enrichment (Becton Dickinson 212240) under aseptic conditions and mix thoroughly.

# Ingredient Concentration Ontology Notes
1 Distilled water
H2O 18.015 g/mol
0.9 L CHEBI:15377
water
Role: Solvating media; Properties: Defined component, Inorganic compound, Simple component [Merged 2 duplicates: 900.0, 100.0] Source amount: 900 ml; scope: main preparation input. Volume-only input/dose, not a final-volume marker; 900 ml = 0.9 L. Earlier merged-quantity text is retained only as historical provenance; the separated source stages supersede it.
2 Glycerol
C3H8O3 92.094 g/mol
0.005 L CHEBI:17754
glycerol
Role: Carbon source; Properties: Defined component, Organic compound, Simple component Source amount: 5 ml; scope: main preparation input. Volume-only input/dose, not a final-volume marker; 5 ml = 0.005 L.
3 Bacto Middlebrook 7H10 agar (Difco 262710) Properties: Defined component, Complex component Source amount: 19 g; scope: main preparation input. This table does not give an explicit final-volume denominator. Preserve the exact mass here; no g/L conversion is asserted. The schema has no mass-only concentration unit.
