While we are no longer running Vanilla, Patreon badges are still being awarded, and shoutout forum posts are being created, because this is done directly in the database via an automated task.

Biology Techniques Videos (Making Growth Media, Pouring Plates and Streaking)

Hi all,

Got 2 new videos for ya. The first is how to prepare growth media for bacteria and other microbes, and the second is how to streak a plate. These will lead to more interesting videos like genetic modification of bacteria, stem cell culture and lots more. Hope you enjoy!
