Principle and Interpretation
DOB (Dropout Base) Growth Medium with 2% Galactose and 1% Raffinose is used for the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This yeast strain is called budding yeast and is extensively studied microorganism in molecular and cell biology.
DOB Growth Medium with 2% Galactose and 1% Raffinose is developed according to the formulae of Wickerham (1, 2) which supplies the required nutritional elements for budding yeast cells. This media contains all the essential vitamins and inorganic salts which are required for the propagation of yeast cells but does not contain the amino acids namely, histidine, methionine, leucine, lysine and tryptophan. Galactose and raffinose serve as the carbon source for the cells.
