Yeast Extract-Peptone-Dextrose (YEPD)

Reagent Quantity Final concentration
Bacto peptone 20 g 2% (w/v)
Yeast extract 10 g 1% (w/v)
Dextrose 20 g 2% (w/v)
Agar (optional) 20 g 2% (w/v)
G418 (200 mg/mL; optional) 1 mL 200 mg/L
Add 1 L of deionized water to 20 g bacto peptone, 10 g yeast extract, and 20 g dextrose (and 20 g of agar for YEPD plates). Sterilize by autoclaving for 20 min at 15 psi (1.05 kg/cm2). To prepare YEPD plus G418 plates, allow the solution to cool to ∼60°C, add 1 mL of G418 stock solution, and pour into Petri dishes (∼25 mL per 100-mm plate). Store YEPD medium without G418 at room temperature, and store YEPD containing medium G418 at 4°C.
