Both NM522 and NM522/pIG24 grew on LB+Amp ( liquid and solid ) : antibiotic concentration in liquid was not sufficient, a more concentrated solution of Amp (10mg/mL which corresponds to 100X) is made and sterilized by filtration.
Creation of our own LB+Amp plates by plating 200µL of Amp on a LB plate.
Plating of several AmpS strains on the previous plates : PHL818, MC4100, NM522+pIG4, NM522 from the collection, NM522 from the previous LB+Amp plate, a new NM522 found in another lab.

Plating of 10µL of the new NM522 on LB

Dissolution of 0.08g of Spectinomycin ( C14H24N2O7 + 2 HCl + 5 H20 ) into 5mL water and filtration to obtain a solution at 10mg/mL.

QIAGen extraction of NM522 and NM522+pIG4 and electrophoresis : no plasmid is in the strains.

Transformation and plating of NM522 on LB with : pUC18 (=pIG6) (3 µL) + Amp, pIG25 (3 µL) + Cm
Transformation and plating of S19 on LB and the antibiotic Amp with : p157 (3 µL) + SpcR, p115 (3 µL) + SpcR, p127 (3 µL) + Kn, p116 (3 µL) + Kn
