ABSTRACT:
A fast method of transforming competent cells is described. The competent cells are thawed at room temperature or in a water bath. Plasmid DNAs and competent cells are mixed together, then the mixture is subject to heat shock treatment. After plating the mixture on a low-temperature selective medium by a low-temperature plating tool, the competent cells are cultured on the selective medium.
