I try to use the isolated colonies of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in chocolate agar for DNA extraction, but due to their clumping when I put them into liquid to make them dissolve, it perturb me for extracting DNA in a large collection of sample.

So how about the easiest way to doing that? Can I use the LB broth instead of fastidious or GCBL broth? What's the condition? Need I grow them in 5% CO2?

Thanks for your suggestion.
