-prepare over night (O/N) culture(s)-add 0.2ml of the O/N culture(s) to the 5ml fresh media-grow cultures to mid-log phase (OD600 of 0.28-0.70)-cool the culture(s) on ice for 20 minutes-record cell density at OD600

-add aliquots of the culture(s) to the assay medium (Z buffer)-add 30l of 0.1%SDS and 60l of chloroform and vortex for 10 seconds-place the samples in a water bath at 28O for 5 minutes-start reaction by adding 0.2 ml of ONPG (4mg/ml) to each tube, shake for a few seconds-record the time of the reaction with a stop watch-stop reaction by adding 0.5ml of a 1M Na2CO3

-record the OD420 and OD550 for each sample
