High density bacterial E.coli growth media
DNAGro medium: Support E.coli growth to OD600 = 30 – 50. Increase plasmid DNA yield 10 times over LB
ProGro medium: Support E.coli growth to OD600 = 30 – 50. Increase protein yield 10 times over LB
AutoX medium: Support E.coli growth to OD600 = 30 – 50. Increase protein yield 10 times over LB without adding IPTG
DetoX medium: Reduce protein toxicity and support E.coli growth to OD600 = 30
InduX medium: Support E.coli growth to OD600 = 30. Increase protein yield, solubility, stability and activity
SecPro medium: Increase secretary protein expression over 100 times than LB or TB
