Three tubes were used for inoculation of the colonies from 06/09/11 and 12/09/11. 2. Two positive controls were prepared and one negative control for each test. 3. To positive control tubes we added 10 ml of liquid LB, 9.7 uL of chloramphenicol (33μg/mL) and 50mM of KNO3. 4. To negative control tube we added the same amount of LB and Chloramphenicol specified in the previous line, except KNO3. 5. Each tube was inoculated with the colonies; three of them with the conlonies from 06/09/11 and the rest with colonies from 12/09/11. 6. Tubes were incubated at 37 ° C for 48 hours.

While reviewing the experiments of Edinburgh in 2009, who designed the promoter used in the BioBrick BCCS-Bristol, we realized that the promoter express better in minimal essential media than in LB, but we do not rule out that we could have made a mistake in the experience preparation prevented us from showing the right results, which is why we decided to do the experiment again.
