NIce job mushboy- you are a machine!

Personally I am still struggling with contamination in my pastyplates. I am wondering if the condensation that is built up on the inside of the plates from PCing is attracting contaminates when I open them in the SAB and then those droplets fall to the agar and cause problems. Or these droplets create too much humidity and a breeding ground. Because the culture will start to grow and as the sides start to clear is when I get problems.

Any thoughts?

how long are you PCin the plates?(40min 15psi) i run into few issues with my plates. every once and while ill get something but its rare. and im so sloppy with it tho.

make sure hands never go over a open plate, i drench my gloves in iso, uhh flame the blade like crazy??

i flick the glads really hard with my finger. condensation goes away after a day or so.
the myc will consume the water. it shouldnt pool or anything.

Wheres the contamination coming from? If it's coming from your transfered you just have more cleaning to do.
If they're at the edges of your plates than you need to tighten up sterile tech

45m at 15psi.

My hands did go over the plates so next time I will make sure not to do that. I do flame like crazy- I wait until I feel heat from the part I am holding. I was getting some pooling water but it has since been eaten.

Well the ones I am trying to clean up I am not worried about- I am expecting that to take some time. Mostly concerned about my newer plates from the most recent clones that I took that I have yet to transfer. 1st set of clones I have already transferred. Going to make some more today and transfer both sets.

also never touch the rims or the bottom of the lids.

my right hand holds the knife and a lid.
the left holds the plate and i rotate the plate around the blade to make my cuts.

i like to do the work in the upper part of the box close to the plastic between the arm holes:thumbup:

i never do cuts from a plate thats sitting on the floor of the box.

Also, do you guys put down towels or no? And where do you place your plates in the SAB?

yah i use a towel.

i just put stuff inside?

i like to do 3-4 small quick batches in the SAB instead of 1-2 big half hour project.

quicker you work the better.

Well I guess what I meant is if you place your towel down and you spray it with water/soap and it's designed to catch contams like the rest of the tubs walls then where do you place your plates inside? Because won't the bottoms of the plates be dirty as you're working with them?

Everything outside the plate is dirty. That's why we only allow flame sterilized tools to hover over our open media.

I just use an upside down tote. The lid is the bottom of my SAB. 
I don't spray the bottom. I like it dry or shit starts slipping and sliding around like Richard Simmons WHOOOAAHHH!

I just use the lid as the bottom and wipe down with alcohol.  I put all plates near the back and organize them in such a way that I dont reach over them.  Everything I put in the sab I wipe thoroughly with iso, and wipe down again before I open.  I make sure not to breath near the arm holes or on my arms or the scalpel.  Other than that it just takes some practice.

Yeah corona, the middle growth looks good but holy shit dude wrap the plates from now on or put em in a ziplock lmao

That is a good post tool, definitely educated me:thumbup:

-blah-





I thought you only needed to wrap them ehen it was petri dishes.



it kinda looks like a petri.  take a transfer from the middle colony




My bad dude they looked like petris at a glance but now that you say their jars the glass on the bottom is obvious.
you shouldn't have to wrap them but those are definitely contamination around the edges.
Are you tightening with the rubber side down? and do you wipe the top of you jar lids with an iso towel before screwing on and pcing?

Its all good, I am using the moded lids, white lids with polyfil and RTV.
I just started wiping my jars before PC, wasnt doing it before.  But like always when I reread TEKs and I see things I am not doing and have to address it to make it a habit.


Man I wanted to do some stinking transfers tonight but its late now, had an assignment do for school and it took WAY longer than I thought it would have.
Maybe tomorrow I'll get some fresh agar poured.  Seeing mush's new plates makes me jelly. hah

I don't use a towel and I use the table I'm working on as the bottom of my SAB. I don't like how the lids have all the random ridges and protrusions. I clean it with a ton of iso and then lay the SAB on it still wet. So by the time I get in there it's dry and also clean
