Is my mycellium healthy ?
    #26106191 - 07/13/19 02:48 PM (5 years, 6 months ago)

Hello everyone,

I read some article about contamination. I just want to say I'm new to this, I can't tell by looking if my mycellium healthy or has cobweb mold (Dactylium) or any bacterial contamination. I'm reaching out to tell the difference but I don't know how.

These are two images I took of the same round:





Thanks to all in advance.

That doesn't look good, obvious mold contaminantion.

This is what bacteria can look like, fyi


These are some good plates. See how the growth is organized and even

People here can be a little bit quick to declare something contaminated, me thinks.

The only thing on that plate that looks suspect to me is that circle directly below the wedge.  But it's still the right color, I'm hoping what happened is when you were transferring, you touched that part of the plate with the wedge before putting it in it's final resting place.

You could still take samples from the upper half of the plate, put them on agar and see it grow out.

In any case, you could observe that culture for a little while longer, see if the suspected mold spot becomes more distinctive and obviously mold.  It should sporulate soon if its mold, which changes it's appearance pretty dramatically.
