What is everyone paying for gloves right now? I just got back from bigbox store and they were trying to charge $23 for a box of the shitty, low quality nitrile gloves! I think I have like 3 individual gloves left right now so I wont be getting much work done until I figure that out




19.99 for good nitrile, but honestly I just wash my hands really well and rub down with alcohol before working :shrug:





I did some testing with agar plate contams in a SAB last fall (still writing it up) and found that scrubbed bare hands (30 seconds with soap and water like the CDC says) then rinsed with ISO didn't contam at all when rubbing agar plates with fingers (last pic after 6 weeks):



OTOH ISO'd nitrile gloves out of the box showed lots of bacterial contams after touching the plates directly (2.5 and 6 weeks):



Moral is of course that ISO alone doesn't kill bacteria spores, but soap and water, and or flame, does.  As does bleach but it has to be in contact long enough to penetrate the spores.  And maybe that flaming hands is not a good idea though I've set ISOd gloves on fire once or twice. :laugh2:

I still use the gloves because the alcohol really kills my hands after a while, if repeated at all.  And working with more than a few cultures involves lots of rinsing inbetween steps at least the way I've generally done it. :shrug:

I need to test nitrile gloves that have been scrubbed and then ISO rinsed for the next go round.  That and indirect transfer (think rubbing fingers together over a plate) rather than touching the actual agar plate to see what falls off.  The next time I do some cult work (that'll be today :lol: I'll try that last test after doing a bunch of work with the same gloves that were only ISO'd, maybe do a scrub/ISO as well if I remember and can afford to waste a pair (the price shot up after the pandemic).

Anyone ever shipped dried out DRy grains internationally?

I guess Enigma could be more readily transferred like that, opsec wise, than a dish?

Get like 100g of dried grainspawn, revive?

From what I've read it's a 50/50 chsncey that it revives

Dunno why mislabeled Petri dishes cannot be sent internationally

That really sucks man. I work in the basement of a moldy old house build in the 50s. I do get some contams, but I never really thought spore load would be an issue. Guys it depends on what spores.

Does anybody else randomly get logged out??

Seems like a couple times a year I hit the bookmark for my threads page and have to log in. Haven’t been able to detect a pattern yet though :shrug2:


Also sporeload is only a problem if you’ve got holes in your game. IME if you don’t clean your area you’re definitely more and more likely to get mold as time goes on. Once you figure out where you’re making mistakes and fix them it won’t matter anymore.

Cool, thanks, I always use "remember me" so that could explain why these issues flew under my radar for so long. :lol:

One other thing to note if you don't use "remember me" is that sessions have a 24 hour lifetime. It's automatically extended every time you view a page, but if you just leave the site open in the background and don't interact with it, after a day you will be logged out. That's expected behavior.

Okay, I found and fixed another login related problem. If you were signed in without the "remember me" option, and then you logged in on another device or browser, you'd get logged out of the first one. Or, if you didn't use the "remember me" option and then logged out, it would log out every device where you hadn't selected "remember me". This could have been responsible for some of what people were experiencing.

I don't have an explanation for why you'd get randomly signed out after navigating to a different page, unless maybe your sign-in cookie had just expired after 120 days, or you changed your password on a different device. I will keep investigating. I'd also be interested to know if either of the fixes I made seem to have helped. Could you please keep an eye out, and when/if it happens again, let me know if you were browsing with "remember me" selected?




I believe out lord and savior is checking into things about getting logged out randomly. It use to happen to me more but not so much anymore. Also I nocced up some jars today with PE, melmac and then some agar of what's supposed to be leucistic melmac, leucistic treasure coast, and a different set of PE genetics. I've got more plates to make soon, as I wanna put some wg and apeu on agar asap as well.

Ive mailed whole petris plenty of times.

I typically take a piece of styrofoam, cut it into a rectangle that fits snug inside the
smallest priority mail box which typically cost around 8 bucks to ship, then cut
a circle the size of a petri out of the center of the styrofoam rectangle.

Fit the petri into the hole then slide the styrofoam rectangle into the priority box.

I've mailed multiple petris this way with no issues.

Hmm, so I was asking a few weeks ago if it would be ok to transfer mycelium from a fully grown dish I've had sitting since June so 7 months now.


I made the transfer, seems to be taking off completely fine, good to know. Now I have two new varieties started 1/1 from spore and a few plates with B+ mycelium already goin :smile:

For anyone that sterilizes agar and melts it at another time, how do you re-melt it?

I need to sterilize my scalpels and loops today to do some inoculations and transfers as well as make some agar to pour some new plates but I won't be able to pour before the bottles solidify and I would prefer to not run my PC twice. Backing the lid off the media bottle to microwave makes me nervous because it sucks air in and I have cracked media bottles in the microwave by not backing the lid off. I always just pour before the agar solidifies but I did a poor job of planning my workflow so far this year...stupid LAGM lol

I microwave with the lid closed. Short bursts with swirling until it’s melted. If you get it around the temp that you sealed it, there is not much vacuum or pressure and it opens easily. You could probably use a simmering water bath as well if the microwave overheated and cracks the bottle.
