cultures in cooler in fridge
    #17613199 - 01/26/13 09:46 AM (11 years, 3 months ago)

is it ok to store culture slants in a cooler in your fridge? the concerns i have are, if we go through the trouble to keep the caps loose and put parafilm on them so they can breath, isn't it going to be counter-productive to put them in a cooler. i'm just trying to counter the de-frost cycle that all refridgerators have.

When you place your cultures in cold storage they become dormat (for all intents and purposes) and don't require air exchange.

Click --> here <-- and read.

You should buffer the defrost cycle by containerizing the slants.

Yes.

Not only that, place a few slants in ziploc bags, and inflate them with air from the laminar flow hood.  Then, place these bags with slants into your lunch box or other insulated carrier before placing in the refrigerator.  This will ameliorate the temperature swings in your refrigerator.
