How sterile are mylar packages for agar storage?
    #29687358 -

I’ve been thinking about putting a couple agar pieces and some prints that have grown on agar in mylar packages, but I don’t know how sterile they would be and if I would just be better off keeping them in the agar dish

I’ve got lots of trades before in mylar packages and they’ve all seem to be as good as any other form of storage

They heat the hell out of those things when they make them, so I’d guess they are “sterile when they leave the factory. And they aren’t likely to pick up much, if anything, on the way to your house. I’d say go for it. Some people have used wedges from trades that are like a year or more old.

YouTube has tons of videos, from what i can see is there is a lot of heat involved for sure

The cool thing might be that after you toss the wedge or plate in there, you can seal it with a flat iron or an impulse sealer.

Right ! Everything would be in done in front of the flow hood just like the grow bags are done
I have received several wedges from people this way, and they’ve all seem to be clean. I was just wondering what the normal experiences have been.

Sending a dirty wedge would be bad juju...
