Minimal liquid medium (NMMP)

NMMP medium is used to obtain dispersed growth of Streptomyces sp. with specific carbon sources.

Preparation

Make up the following solutions:

Minor elements solution: (per litre)

  • 1g ZnSO4*7H2O
  • 1g FeSO4*7H2O
  • 1g MnCl2*4H2O
  • 1g CaCl2, anhydrous

Phosphate buffer

  • Mix 0.1M solutions of NaH2PO4 and K2HPO4 to give pH 6.8

Carbon source

  • 20% solution, sterilized separately

NMMP

  • 2 g (NH4)2SO4
  • 5 g Difco Casaminoacids
  • 0.6g MgSO4*7H2O
  • 50g PEG 6000
  • 1 mL minor elements solution
  • 800 mL ddH2O

Instructions

  1. Make up the NMMP solution described above
  2. Dispense in 80 mL aliquots
  3. Autoclave
  4. Make up the phosphate buffer solution, carbon source, and any other required growth factors, and autoclave these separately
  5. Just before using, add:
    • 15 mL NaH2PO4/K2HPO4 buffer (0.1M, pH 6.8)
    • 2.5 mL carbon source (20%)
    • 2.5 mL any other required growth factors (add 2.5 mL sterile water if none)

Uses

  • Routine growth of Streptomyces sp. in liquid culture
