Hello,
I want to take a timeout from my other project and now I am into genetically engineered bacteria. I want to use the pje202/pVIB plasmid containing e. coli. This bacterium has to grow on ampicilline or it will eventually lose the plasmid. I wanted to ask, whether there is another possibility to prevent plasmid loss other than using antimicrobial drugs?
Thanks very much,
regards,
André Leonhardt
