can you "pause" agar plates?
    #23682730 - 09/27/16 10:10 AM (7 years, 4 months ago)

i got into agar a few months ago and am quickly being overwhelmed by the workload! so many plates with healthy/interesting strains growing, and i don't want to waste so many of them but i also want to be sure i'll have transfers to do so i'm trying to find a balance.

my question is: is there any way to slow down the growth on a plate that needs transfers so i can get to it before its too late (i.e culture becomes senescent or collides into another growth on the plate)? all I need is another day or two in most cases.

Fridge does wonders. If you're going for long term storage of your favorite isolation's I like to make some simple slants with a shard of tongue depressor in it. You can keep them like that for years!

You have to sterilize the tongue depression right. It's been a minute since I read up. Do you sterilize the agar with the tongue depressor?

I mean, yeah.  The only alternative would be sterilizing them separately and then doing some kinda voodoo to get them together while the agar is still liquid.  Easier to do them both at once in one go.
