Hi all,
another quiet day in the lab but very interesting. First started by collecting water from the Brayford, then Sharon spread plated, MEA, Mannitol salt, Baird parker, MLSA and nutrient agar plates. Sharons project was to count colony numbers, now that is complete, we were curious as to the type of colonies. Next i innoculated a couple of MEA slopes with the three confirmed funghi on my work bench and made a couple of MEA broths using the two funghi i have as yet not been able to culture. Saccharomyces spp and Mucor you will not defeat me!!! Nicola had a meeting which clashed with the timing of her cells being ready for competency, so she talked me through the process. Really loved it, want to learn more about anti microbial resistance.

Penicillin notatum, Aspergllus niger and Parasiticus,these are now ready for me to innoculate into MEA slopes next week. The only two fungi i have not been able to culture are Sacchromyces and Mucor but thanks to Mike i know where to begin on monday.
