Method

  • For each of the 9 mutants, 3 [K+] of growth medium were examined: 1mM, 50mM & 200mM

Composition of Each Cuvette: 

                     * 100ul cells
                     * 100ul KCl (10x stocks)
                     * 800ul LB 
                       ----------------------
                         1ml Final Volume
  • The spectrophotometer was zeroed using LB.
  • OD readings were taken every 30 minutes for 3 hours.
  • In between readings, cultures were stored at room temperature & covered with parafilm.
