And now you're trying to strawman. What filters? If i remember you didn't think laminar hepas come in low static pressure numbers now. Dimple pleat hepas are usually less than 0.5" resistance and are made specifically for laminar flow applications. You can find NOS filters from the 90s with 1.5 or higher for the same purposes
Yes, i said its retarded! I never said it didnt work!
Whos grasping at strawmen? 
Can you show me where i said clingwrap doesnt work? #SaranWrap4Tards

And that is not what you told me about pre assembled filters in your laminar thread. You prolly already editied that to death.
You work for the deep state, dont you? Its cool, you can tell me.

I want to point out if you’re lazy like me or your knife isn’t sharp a jigsaw with a fine tooth with cut your Saran Wrap fine. Will maybe tear the first few times you use it so I just pull off like 7-8 wrap lengths and it’s fine from there on

guys
how long will a culture survive on average before it suffocates if I use saran?
I have a bit too many plates and not enough jars so I moved some of the plates to the fridge. Do you think they'll be ok for 2 weeks?

you would have to wrap the shit out of it to seal it completely and if it's in the fridge it's not gonna colonize anyway

More than a couple years. The agar turns to more like fruit leather after that long.

I love Parafilm. Nothing wrong with using cling wrap (or saran short term) tho. I really like bods method of cutting rolls
I have worked out a good workflow for Parafilm, I think I detail it in my agar guide.
Basically I take a 4 inch roll, pull out two lengths about 1.5ft long, stack them on top of another on (3 layers deep) and clamp them on with food clips, then take a scalpel and cut it into 3/4 inch strips (so it makes 3 per cut). Then I have a Little stack of individual premeasured pre cut Parafilm strips ready to go for my next agar sesh

Yeah I don't know who's method it is, but after some peeps mentioned Saran I started using it (think it was smartattack) and I have found that my PVC cutter works great to cut it into 2 inch rolls. It's way easier to work with than Parafilm.

Yeah A plate will for sure dry up before suffocating.
Idk about everybody else but I have a ton of plates and end up wrapping and re wrapping them taking transfers or whatever. So unless you can reuse the same strip of Micropore tape multiple times you’d need a lot.
I’m liking the title change btw.

It's not new to use cling film. it's probably as old as cling film itself.

Cling film having been used for as long as it's been around? That's a theory I think we all can get on board with!

I use the 4 inch roll of parafilm and cut it into plate sized strips before my sab session and then bring them in. I’m still using the first roll I ever bought and if I were broke at the time I would have no qualms using Saran Wrap or press n seal or even MP tape. What’s the argument here? Saran is cheaper and probably easier to use in most cases so it may be best advice to offer to a noob, but parafilm is designed to keep out contams and still allows gas exchange. There’s advantages and disadvantages to each and I would think they are equal in the context of sealing petris. Especially considering most of us who do a lot of work only have a plate wrapped for a week max I don’t really understand what’s going on in this thread 😂
