Contamination ID and what causes it.
    #26932409 - 09/12/20 07:46 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)



I have been recently having this yellow type of mold appearing in my jars and on my plates. Its always the same mold, is there anything i am doing to cause this mold to appear? I kind of want to know its habitat so I can stop it. I normally dont have contam issues. I dont know if its something in my house.

How are you inoculating your grains? Agar wedge, MS syringe? I doubt a contaminant in your house it causing the problem unless your jar lid filter material isn't suitable, your grains aren't properly sterilized or you're doing open air inoculations. My guess would be your inoculant if you're doing everything else properly.

Cool thanks for the response. I'm using agar wedges to inoculate.

I do wonder though, can mold go unseen for a couple weeks? The same jars that have contams in them where from the same dish which now also has that mold on it. The dish looked clean when I inoculated the jars. I only let the dish grow out about a week though before knocking up the jars.

The agar plates themselves I let sit for about 2 weeks after pouring to make sure they are contam free.

Do you think the mold spores could've already been on the dish and just not germinated yet?
