How to prepare a swab?
    #19044413 - 10/28/13 05:17 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Hi!

Next time my small casings of P. cubensis Penis Envy will fruit (hopefully, primordia are visible since yesterday). I know that the caps of this strain wont open fully so I want to make some swabs to save the genetic. So here is the question: How do you sterilize the q-tips? Is it necessary? Or should I just buy I new, unopened package of them and can use them as they are?

Thanks in advice!

They will not be sterile out of the box.

What you could do is throw some in a jar with a filter and PC them....

Then open the jar in a SAB, take one and swab the underside of a cap, then wrap it in foil or place the qtip in a small baggie.

This is what I do, but I buy pre-sterilized swabs and PC them myself....kind of OCD lol.

This is what I do except no foil and then when I make a syringe I just pierce the bag with the needle and squirt some water on the q-tip wile rubbing it, then suck it back up. Or you could swab it on agar
