how long will Pastyplates last?
    #23981367 - 01/04/17 12:51 PM (7 years, 26 days ago)

How long? Made some up before the holidays and they have been sitting unopened in the PC and still have condensation on the inside and still wrapped in foil. Use them or toss and start over?

they are fine.

i do batches of about 40 plates per month and i grab em as i need em.

if any have growth on them then your sterilization procedure was not sufficient.

They last until they dry out completely. The same with petri dishes.
At least 6 weeks. If they are closed tightly (pasty plates) or wrapped with parafilm (petri dishes).

Good to know! I had searched and all I came up with is best stored in the fridge but I'm going to give them a try anyway. Maybe not ideal but they have been sealed up with foil and in the PC so should be OK. Starting with spores anyway so may have to do transfers anyways. Thanks!

They'll work just fine. I've used 2 month old plates stored in a SAB just fine as well and they had no condensation :lol:.

:whathesaid:

Storing in the fridge usually causes condensation because of the temperature fluctuations. So a SAB or shelf or whatever might not keep them as long as a fridge but you won't have condensation problems if the room has a pretty constant temperature.

The fridge is good for long term storage of cultures.

Mine lasted for 4 months in pint pp5s and glad mini rounds with 2 layers of tape, but they ended up fruiting in vitro.
