| + | <li> Streak long term storage glycerol stocks on a LB agar plate + Cm12.5 (don't forget positive and negative controls). Let them grow over night. |
| + | <li> Pick 3 colonies from each clone and inoculate it in 1 ml M9 + Cm12.5 in a falcon tube; let them grow over night. |
| + | <li> Dilute cultures 1:100 in 1 ml of M9 + Cm12.5 and let them grow for three hours. |
