Talk:Lysogeny broth

Source
the source STUDIES ON LYSOGENESIS does not contain the term lysogeny broth. In here it is only commented as LB media. Is this truly the first paper?

I believe the original paper just refers to it by the acronym LB (since the point of the paper was not to introduce LB but to provide results about lysogeny). Regardless of what Bertani originally meant LB to stand for (or the explanation he provided many years later), the vast majority of working scientists just know it as LB. Since it appeared as an acronym in the original paper, and "lysogeny broth" is not a commonly used expansion of the acronym, the title of the entry should be changed to "LB media". Who, looking for information about LB media is going to search for "lysogeny broth" unless they are already quite familiar with its history?Toomuchscience (talk) 20:15, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

In the paper of Bertani 1951, he defined LB medium as: bacto tryptone 1 per cent, yeast extract 0.5 per cent, NaCl 1 per cent, glucose 0.1 per cent, in H20; pH adjusted to 7.0 with 1 N NaOH. Glucose is not present in Luria-Bertani standard(LB) medium, so I consider that Lysongen Broth is not the same as LB. Bertani in the paper of 2004 clarified that he didn't use LB standard medium. So, please reconsider the Wikipedia definition.

Is it possible that the LB-Luria recipe (0.5 NaCl/liter) is wrong? a) The text above mentions that Luria copied the original recipe. b) The source [10] does actually not include this recipe either.
