While cells are growing, thaw 2X TSS on ice and dilute an appropriate amount 1:1 with sterile distilled water (100µl of diluted TSS will be needed for each ml of cells). Chill on ice.

<li>  Place 2-ml aliquots of early log-phase cells into sterile 2-ml micro-centrifuge tubes and pellet the cells by centrifugation at 4°C  at 3000g for 10 min.(6-8 mins for taking part from Igem kit)
