 Mycelium Growing in Syringes??? Possible?

Hi! I made a bunch of spore syringes a few weeks ago and kept them in a dark drawer at room temp. I noticed yesterday that a few of my syringes have some white fuzzie mycelium-looking stuff growing in it. Resembles the white fluffly myc that grows in Karo water(It also resembles the white fluffly contam that grows in contammed karo water. The syringes have plain water in them, no karo whatsoever.
Is this most likely mycelium? Is this a common occurance? Can mycelium 'sprout' from spores in a non nutritive solution like plain water? Or is it most likely a contam?

Yes it can. Knock up your jars, they will colonize fast!

Heh.. I guess vendors need to be real careful with this, as far as legal issues go.

UPDATE:
This was not mycelium. It was some kind of contam.

yeah I just got a bunch of syringes that appeared to have this mycelium growth. I made Karo jars from them... so far everything Ive inoculated with them has contamed. Do you guys know if vendors will refund or reship syringes that have arrived in such condition?

I've had syringes get that, and I've never had any contam problems from them. Still could be contams in your syringe, though. You just never know till you use it.

While you were only supposed to be using your syringe for microscopy use only... can you tell us, where did you order the syringe from?
