Now supplied with outgrowth medium optimized for NEB 10-beta & NEB Stable Competent E.coli ; please do not use SOC outgrowth medium.
NEB 10-beta Competent E. coli is a derivative of the popular DH10B. It is T1 phage resistant and endonuclease I (endA1) deficient for high- quality plasmid preparations.
High efficiency strain ideal for cloning large plasmids and BACs
Chemically competent E. coli cells suitable for high efficiency transformation in a wide variety of applications.
Highlights
Transformation efficiency: 1–3 x 109 cfu/µg pUC19 DNA
Efficient transformation of methylated DNA derived from eukaryotic sources or unmethylated DNA derived from PCR, cDNA and many other sources [mcrAΔ(mrr-hsdRMS-mcrBC)]
Activity of nonspecific endonuclease I (endA1) eliminated for highest quality plasmid preparations
Resistance to phage T1 (fhuA)
Suitable for blue/white screening without IPTG by a-complementation of the b-galactosidase gene
Effect of Plasmid Size on Transformation Efficiency:
NEB 10-beta chemically competent cells are more efficiently transformed with large plasmids than NEB 5-alpha cells. The difference in TE between the two cell lines increases with the size of the plasmid being transformed.
Effect of heat shock time on NEB 10-beta competent E. coli transformation efficiency: 50 μl of competent cells were transformed with 100 pg of pUC19 control DNA following the provided High Efficiency Transformation Protocol except heat shock time varied from 0 to 80 seconds.Effect of DNA incubation time on NEB 10-beta competent E. coli transformation efficiency:
50 μl of competent cells were transformed with 100 pg of pUC19 control DNA following the provided High Efficiency Transformation Protocol except DNA incubation time varied from 0 to 40 minutes.
Effect of outgrowth medium on transformation efficiency:
50 μl of NEB 10-beta competent E. coli was transformed with 100 pg of pUC19 control DNA following the provided High Efficiency Transformation Protocol with the exception of varying the outgrowth medium. NEB 10-beta/Stable Outgrowth Medium delivers the highest transformation efficiency.Benefit from the high transformation efficiencies of NEB 10-beta:
Transformation efficiencies were compared using manufacturers’ recommended protocols. Values shown are the average of triplicate experiments.
STORAGE AND HANDLING: Competent cells should be stored at -80°C. Storage at -20°C will result in a significant decrease in transformation efficiency. Cells lose efficiency whenever they are warmed above -80°C, even if they do not thaw.
CAUTION: This product contains DMSO, a hazardous material. Review the MSDS before handling.
