  Replica plating - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The purpose of replica plating is to be able to compare the master plate and any secondary plates to screen for a selectable phenotype.
Replica plating is especially useful for negative selection.
By increasing the variety of secondary plates with different selective growth media, it is possible to rapidly screen a large number of individual isolated colonies for as many phenotypes as there are secondary plates.

 Replica plating   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Replica plating is a technique in which multiple dishes, also known as Petri plates, containing solid (agar-based) microbial media, are inoculated with between thirty and three-hundred colonies of microorganisms from a primary plate (or master dish), reproducing the original spatial pattern of colonies.
The technique involves pressing a velvet-covered disk to a primary plate, and then imprinting multiple secondary plates with cells in colonies removed by the velvet from the original plate.
By using different types of selective growth media (lacking nutrients or containing chemical growth inhibitors such as antibiotics) on the different secondary plates, it is possible to rapidly screen a large number of individual isolated colonies and detect those that have different phenotypes.

 Patent 4634676: Replica plating device
Since the replica plating provides for the transfer of colonies in the same pattern that the original colonies were incubated, ready identification of the source of cells of interest is the advantageous by-product of this technique.
This replica plating device is comprised of a substantially planar pressing member, a side wall extending upwardly from the pressing member and surrounding same, and a skirt connected to the side wall and extending downwardly along the side wall in spaced relation thereto.
Due to the structure of the replica plating device which includes a skirt therearound that embraces and covers the rim of the petri dish containing the cells for cloning, preservation of sterility in the petri dish is more assured than use of the presently known and available replica plating tool.

 Patent 5587322: Replica plating device
The process of replica plating typically involves a printing-like transfer of a set of colonies from one culture surface to another culture surface or surfaces while maintaining the original pattern of the colonies.
It is desirable in the replica plating process to use a device which is easy to operate and provides a large number of high resolution replicates.
For example, the replica plating device may be composed of only two regions, a first for insertion into a petri dish, and the second being the peripheral ridge.

The velvet is then pressed onto a plate with phage spread on the surface.
When Lederberg pressed the replica pad with bacteria onto multiple plates containing bacteriophage, the number and position of resistant colonies was always the same.
(We still use replica plating in the lab to check characteristics of 50- 100 colonies or 'patches' of bacteria - what nutrients are required for growth, antibiotic resistance, phage resistance, etc. (It's low tech and cheap but very useful!!).

Generally, large numbers of colonies (roughly 30-300) are replica plated due to the difficulty in streak (biology) streaking each out individually onto a separate plate.
The purpose of replica plating is to be able to compare the master plate and any secondary plates to genetic screen screen for a genetic marker selectable phenotype.
By increasing the variety of secondary plates with different selective medium selective growth media, it is possible to rapidly screen a large number of individual isolated colonies for as many phenotypes as there are secondary plates.

Of the three plates that were analyzed, the primary control plate possessed all of the colonies found on the original plate.
When the three plates were incubated and consequently refrigerated to prevent further growth, observations were able to be made concerning the origin of adaptive mutants.
The cells of the yeast culture that was produced on the master plate were replica plated onto a non-selective medium then transferred to the two copper-based plates.

Replica plating is a process by which colonies on one plate are transferred with the same spatial arrangement to another plate.
This is usually done by using a felt cloth and a cylindrical piece of metal with the same diameter as a plate.
The plate is pressed onto the cylindrical metal covered by cloth, imprinting the bacteria onto the cloth.

Individuals are replica plated on media having the nutrient (permissive media) vs. media lacking the nutrient (selective media).
Replica plating (Figure 7.2) is commonly used for this purpose.
Usually, one plate is "permissive," allowing the growth of all cells; the other is "restrictive," not allowing the growth of the mutants of interest.

Basically, the argument relied on an analysis of the variance of the plating results: whether the variance (i.e the "spread" on the different plates was narrow and close to the mean of all the plates, or was much greater than the mean.
These invisible colonies on half the plates are then respread (to scatter out the progeny of the initial divisions so that they become new foci for colony growth) and a suspension of phage is sprayed evenly over the plate; these are compared to plates left undisturbed and sprayed with phage.

The master plate would not have a small number of resolved macrocolonies but a large number of unresolved microcolonies, among which there would be only a small number of resistant clones.
My final comment, unrelated to the foregoing, is that the replica plating example demonstrates another major theme of the chapter; namely that any hypothesis is continually at risk of falsification by subsequent testing.
I wish to emphasize that, although the pre-adaptation vs. directed mutation controversy had been considered settled for decades, and even though the fluctuation and replica plating tests were considered classics by the canonical texts, that bacterial geneticists were, for the most part, willing to accept that the question needed re-examination.

Typically, this technique is used to identify auxotrophic mutants by transferring them from a nutrient-rich plate to minimal medium on which only prototrophs can grow.
Once identified by their failure to grow on the minimal plates, such auxotrophic mutants can be recovered from the nutrient rich master plate.
