Spore Syringes with white blobs?
    #26718107 - 06/04/20 12:01 AM (3 years, 7 months ago)

It’s been a few years since posting, I’ve recently got back into microscopy, and I purchased some spores from my favorite vendor. I got them and they look nothing like any syringes I’ve ever purchased. There appears to be purple spores in the syringe, but they are encased in a gelatinous blob of semitransparent jelly? I have never seen anything like it and I’ve sent them pictures, but they have assured me twice they are good. I can shake the crap out of the syringes and the blobs barely break apart, one syringe won’t break up at all! I’ve got tons of syringes over the years and plenty with clumps of spores, but never seen one with this jelly like substance encasing them. I’ve got syringes loaded with clumps of spores, but they are always clear water and look like clumps of pepper until you shake em. The company I purchased from says that they guarantee their products and will replace them if they are no good after I look at them under my microscope. I would hate to waste time and resources getting everything together and ready to go, only to find out they are old or contaminated. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Why would these syringes look like this? Thanks all. I’ll try and post some pictures if this works....

Edit the vendor name out of your post, that isn't allowed.

It is possible some of the spores have germinated in the water, but I'll let someone else chime in

If you get spore germination I'm the syringes it is supposedly from contamination. However I have a vendor syringe that has what looks like germed spores in it that has been confirmed clean.
I'm not saying for sure that you are seeing germination but that would be my guess. You won't know if it's contaminated or not until you use them.

There in lies my problem.....I’ve got numerous spore syringes over the years from this vendor and never seen anything like this from them nor any other vendor. I don’t want to waste all that time and money using the spores only to see contamination. This vendor is a sponsor here, and I’ve always ordered from them in the past, can anyone else chime in with any thoughts?

I think those are air bubbles. If you out them on a slide and look under a microscope as intended you could see if they have germinated. Otherwise I do not think you have a chance at complaining about them. Sorry man. Microscopy only is what the label says.
