β¦ Synopsis
Bacillus brevis 47 was successfully and reproducibly transformed with pUB110 plasmid DNA by electroporation with an efficiency of 104 transformants per/2g of DNA. This represents a 10-fold improvement over the chemical transformation method previously used for this organism.

Transformation of intact cells of Bacillus licheniformis 5A2a with plasmids pLM6 (2.8 kb), pC194 (2.9 kb) and pCPa9 (7.1 kb) by electroporation resulted in 1.5 x 106 , 1.2 x 106 , and 5.2 x 104 transformants per ~g DNA, respectively. Transformation was possible with plasmid DNA, which was religated
In contrast to a variety of other yeasts, Candida albicans has proved difficult to transform with high efficiency. Lithium acetate transformation is fast and simple but provides a very low efficiency of DNA transfer (50-100 transformants/ g DNA), while spheroplast transformation, although more effic
Optimum conditions were defined for the electrotransformation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 with plasmid pLAFR1, resulting in a 1500-fold increase in transformation efficiency compared to conventional chemical transformation with MgCl2. In addition, PAO236 and two out of three recent clinical isola
Standard electroporation of Salmonella typhimurium TA1538 by the plasmid pAMH70 yielded 1.3~10~ transformantslpg of plasmid DNA. Three parameters: resistance (U,), voltage (U,) and dose of plasmid DNA (U,) were optimized with two Doehlert designs. Transformation was increased 75 fold. Optimal values
