Hi everyone,
I’m new here, I joined chatshaala after an interactive session with Prof. G.Nagarjuna and when I asked him a question, he encouraged me to write the same question here. Hence I’m here posting a question that has been irritating me since I came to know about home labs.
What are the measures taken for sterilization in home labs? How do you isolate pure colonies of bacteria, saving it from fungal contamination?

Any bacteria, even if it is part of our body, such as E. Coli, when grown in large numbers can cause diseases. Keeping the place clean, destroying the colonies is part of learning in home labs. We discuss these details regularly at CUBE chatshaala https://webinar.chatshala.in/rooms/igu-cek-scg-o52/join from 7.30pm to 9.30pm on any day. Often some of the active participants of CUBE Chatshala publish their notes at https://metaStudio.org/c/cube
