Improved Electroporation of Rhodococcus equi.
Journal of Veterinary Medical Science, 1998 The condition of an electroporation method was re-evaluated for the introduction of foreign plasmid DNA into Rhodococcus equi. The method is based on an electroporation of the bacteria made competent by culturing in a broth containing glycine and by heat shock at 50 degrees C. Transformation of R. equi could be achieved with a chloramphenicol-resistant
