Description générale

S-Gal® is an autoclavable, chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase, used to determine the presence or absence of a cloned DNA insert in bacteria growing on agar plates. S-Gal® is designed to replace X-Gal in blue-white selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac+ phenotype.

Application

Suitable for use in selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac+ phenotype. S-Gal® is autoclavable and can be added to bacterial broth containing agar prior to autoclaving.
S-Gal is a patented autoclavable chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase that is designed to replace X-Gal in blue-white selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac+ phenotype.

Caractéristiques et avantages

  • More intense color contrast than X-gal
  • Excellent for use in automated colony counters
  • Autoclavable for easiest use
  • No need to make stock solutions
When S-Gal is cleaved by β-galactosidase, the resulting product will chelate ferric ion to create a black, insoluble precipitate. Lac+ colonies grown in the presence of S-Gal and ferric ion turn an intense black color, allowing for easy differentiation between lac+ and lac- colonies. S-Gal is autoclavable and can be added to your medium of choice prior to autoclaving. S-Gal is not light sensitive and does not require any protection from light sources.

Autres remarques

Autoclavable, microwavable growth medium complete with S-Gal and IPTG.
The ferric or Fe3+ ion is required for color development and must be added to any S-Gal®
formulation. A medium prepared with S-Gal® is moderately dark due to the presence of ferric ammonium citrate. This darker background often provides enhanced contrast for automated colony counting or isolation.

Principe

When S-Gal® is cleaved by ß-galactosidase, the resulting product will chelate ferric ion to create a black, insoluble precipitate. Lac+ colonies grown in the presence of S-Gal® and ferric ion turn an intense black color, allowing for easy differentiation between lac+ and lac- colonies.

Reconstitution

Stock solutions of S-Gal® can be made by dissolving 50mg/ml in dimethyl formamide (DMF) and storing at -20C. Add S-Gal® (300 mg/L from stock solution ) and Ferric Ammonium Citrate (500mg/L) to agar media prior to autoclaving.
