A question about LB - (Dec/28/2004 )

Hello Everybody and Happy New Year!!!!!
Could someone please tell me what is the difference between
LB agar/broth and LB agar/broth, Miller (hope i have named them correctly).
Thank You.

The difference is in NaCl content

LB, Miller (Luria-Bertani): 10g/l NaCl
LB, Lennox: 5g/l NaCl

I have used both in different labs, and I haven't seen any difference...
