i found a place giving free agar samples, but they ask for a choice between GELIDIUM and GRACILARIA( both 100 mesh), which would be best for mycology work?

www.moorhead-agar.com huh?
Take the Gelidium one.
" Most high-grade agar applications for microbiology and agarose require agars derived from Gelidium. Gelidium agars from different species and locales differ in their properties and not all Gelidium agars meet the specifications for microbiological or agarose applications. Lower grades of Gelidium agars are utilized in food applications. These microbiological and agarose agars are mostly Gelidium agars. Uses include: the preparation of culture media for bacteria, yeasts, and molds; plant and animal tissue culture; biotechnology; genetic engineering; DNA and protein separations; cloning of organisms; and the breeding of insects used in biological control. Other applications include its use in producing exact molds for manufacture of dental prostheses, reproducing sculptures and archeological pieces, reproducing fingerprints in police investigations and gelled electrolytes in the manufacture of leak-proof batteries."

>What is the definition of mesh?
It?s the number of apertures(holes) of a sive at a distance of 1 inch.
So a 100 mesh sieve has 100 holes per inch.
