TABLE 2.
Amt of pUC19 transformed (ng) | Transformation efficiency (CFU/μg)
|
|
---|---|---|
MG1655 | BD123 | |
1 | 3.3 (±0.7) × 105 | 7.4 (±1.0) × 106 |
10 | 3.4 (±1.2) × 105 | 8.1 (±0.8) × 106 |
100 | 3.6 (±0.8) × 105 | 8.1 (±1.4) × 106 |
The transformation efficiencies of the biofilm-deficient BD123 and MG1655 were compared by the standard CaCl2 heat shock transformation method.
