Agar dish isopiestic equilibration method for controlling the water potential of solid substrates.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Maintenance of substrate water potential in petri dishes is achieved by using vapor-pressure controlling, solute-amended agar gel discs attached to the inside of the top halves of the dishes.

Starbursts and wispy drops: surfactants spreading on gels.
The spreading dynamics of surfactant-laden droplets have been studied for both solid and thin liquid substrates. In general, the presence of a surfactant modifies the contact line dynamics due to the Marangoni effect, which creates a surface tension gradient and thus generates pattern-forming instabilities. To determine the effects of varying substrate mobility from a liquid to a solid, we exam...
متن کاملModified method for fungal slide culture.
A modified slide culture method which combines advantages found in several slide culture methods is described. A block of inoculated nutrient agar sandwiched between two sterile cover glasses is placed in a plastic petri dish containing water agar. After adequate growth has occurred, the slide culture is disassembled and mounted in a conventional manner.
متن کاملA comparison on Lipase Production from Soybean meal and Sugarcane Bagasse in Solid State Fermentation using Rhizopus oryzae
In this study, solid-state fermentation of two types of agricultural residues/products for lipase production in a tray-bioreactor was investigated. Rhizopus oryzae was used as a potential fungus strain and two types of agricultural residues including soybean meal and sugarcane bagasse were utilized as substrate. Fermentation was carried out in two different operational conditions: one with cont...
متن کاملStable isotope ratios as a tool in microbial forensics--part 3. Effect of culturing on agar-containing growth media.
Stable isotope ratios of hydrogen and oxygen in microbes have been shown to be functions of the corresponding isotope ratios of the water with which the culture medium was prepared, and thus to contain a potential geographic signal. Water can evaporate from agar (solid) media during culturing, changing its isotope ratios. Here we describe the effect of drying on the isotope ratios of water extr...
متن کاملEffect of Agar and Different Culture Media on the Micropropagation of Rosa hybrida cv.’Black Baccara’
In vitro propagation of plant has played a very important role in rapidmultiplication of cultivars with desirable traits and production of healthy and disease-free plants. In the present investigation, the objectives were to optimize the micropropagation of Rose hybrid ‘Black Baccarat’ cultivar. In proliferation step, the nodal segments (1.5 cm) was cultured on both liquid and solid media (MS, ...
