Luria Broth is a nutritionally balanced solution containing peptone and yeast extract for the maintenance of Escherichia coli strains. This Bacterial Growth environment facilitates rapid Liquid Culture for a standard Plasmid DNA Propagation Protocol and routine molecular biology tasks. Recommended for routine cultivation and estimation of not particularly fastidious microorganisms.


The media is generally used for molecular and genetic studies, because of its nutritive capacity and simple composition, which can be easily altered as per specific requirements. The medium is nutritionally rich for the growth of pure cultures of recombinant strains. Strains which are generally derived from Escherichia coli K12 are deficient in Vitamin B synthesis and are further modified by specific mutation to create auxotrophic strains that are unable to grow on nutritionally deficient media.Tryptone provides peptides and peptones while Vitamin B complex is provided by yeast extract. Sodium chloride provides sodium ions for the membrane transport and maintains osmotic equilibrium of the medium.
