@ContamClub. A beautiful contamination on PCA. We forget it to wash on Friday. The observation on Monday a beautiful mold occupied the surface.

Check this beautiful contamination👌🏻
I think it's from lab air as I was opening the plate to take pictures of other strains.

Hi everyone, unfortunately I have some serious health issues so I’ll have to put ContamCalendar orders on hold from next week, hopefully only for a few weeks but may be longer🚨
So if you want a calendar soon please place your order before Monday 5th January. Thank you! 📅🧫🦠

#DescribeThatMicrobe Microbial hand prints can have some interesting microbes. This is a top view and one using transmitted light making it look other worldly. @ASMicrobiology @ContamClub
