- Cracking Gel Method To Screen Bacterial Colonies (Pamela Stanley Lab Wiki, Yale University)
A cracking buffer is used to crack open the bacterium, releasing its DNA (both genomic and plasmid), which is electrophoresed on an agarose gel. The genomic DNA being Mbs in length migrates very slowly while the plasmid DNA move much faster.

In cases where a lower efficiency of right ligation is expected (such as in case of blunt-end cloning), one may need to screen many colonies. Kit based methods can become cost or effort-intensive. The following three are alternate and cheap methods in such cases: PCR-based screening, Restriction enzyme digestion-based screening and Plasmid DNA migration-based screening
