FUNGUS CULTURING EQUIPMENT: AN INOCULATING PUNCH. A PETRI PLATE SHIELD, AND A GROWTH TUBE READER

Abstract

Three devices are described that aid in handling cultures of fungi more accurately and conveniently: () The inoculating punch permits cutting and transferring uniform-size inocula quickly and easily for tube, plate, or soil bottle cultures: (2) the petri plate shield supports an open plate culture and provides protection against contamination during transfers; and (3) the growth tube reader makes possible accurate quantitative measurements of lineal fungus growth rate or changes of growth rate.
