Bad / old Parafilm?
    #26813997 - 07/09/20 11:32 PM (3 years, 6 months ago)



Dunno if you can see where the Parafilm split in the photo
Anyone have this problem before? It's been hot so maybe it's the heat. This Parafilm box is a few years old, it's been in storage. There is nothing noticibly off about it.

Those splits and pinhole leaks keep showing up and causing mold to show up at the edge of otherwise clean culture plates. I have air and fans on so I assume it's getting blown in.

Gonna switch to cling wrap till I sort it out :shrug:0

I occasionally get a box that does that. Likes to rip before you need it to. Just put a few layers on it.

Ah. Probably the Parafilm and not the heat then. Hmm
I have been using multiple layers :shrug:

First time this has happened to me.

I notice that it's prone to drying out after coming out of its packaging and then it tears like a mofo

This might be a stupid question: is there only one "Parafilm"?  Are there different brands?
