PCR screening

The following protocol is established for the screening of 10 colonies.

Preparation of the PCR mixture (final volume 200 µl)

Component Volume Final concentration

Component Volume Final concentration
H2O 150 µl  
10 x PCR buffer 20 µl  
20 x dNTP 10 µl each nucleoside 250 µM
downstream primer* 10 µl 400 µM
upstream primer* 10 µl 400 µM
Taq polymerase 3µl 1 U
  1. divide the PCR mixture in 10 aliquots (20 µl each);
  2. with a sterilised toothpick, slightly touch the surface of the colony in order to pick up a very small amount of material;
  3. dip the end of the toothpick into the PCR mixture for 2-3 seconds and then remove it;
  4. add two drops of mineral oil;
  5. the conditions on the termal cycler are the following:
    94 °C (10 min) - [94 °C (1 min) - 55 °C (1 min) - 72 °C (2 min)]30 - 65 °C (2 min)


For phagemids, the two primers are LMB3 and FdSeq
