How much spores per syringe?
    #20600789 - 09/22/14 11:43 AM (10 years, 3 months ago)

Hi

I am going to make my first spore syringe. I have a 20ml syringe and a 1" diameter print. Should I use the whole print for the syringe?

LOL, so I guess I shouldn't have made a 12cc syringe from an entire 1" print the other day. The syringe water looks purple. :laugh:

Now I'm just done making my first syringe! I hope my sterilization tek was up to par.

I use even less than that.......prints can make a ton of syringes, and even more agar dishes.

Heat up an inoculation loop to red hot, then cool it down in an agar plate, creating a small puddle in the center of the dish.

Then I scrape some spores with the loop, then touch the center of the agar plate with it, wiping in a circular motion, then seal up the dish with parafilm or 1" strips of saran wrap.

That is all.....then you just wait a week or so for growth and make some transfers.

All of this is done in a SAB(Still Air Box) of course.

Is there a easy way to check if my syringe contains contamination?

I was being generous, a little does indeed go a very long way. A fraction of that would suffice.
