Rev Posted September 30, 2004 a few pics - King islad blue and English stilton cloned to MYA + oxytetracycline 100% success Classic Penicillium growth pattern Milk agar idea i scrapped for now as its not needed to isolate. at 2 days old At 5 days old now some plates one or two are showing some breakthrough mycelium sof a strange sort - thin and aerial wispy it may or may not ne part of the morphology of p roquefortii as it ages. Only clean up will tell Today They have grown to cover thebetter part of the plate and there are visible growth pattern differences between the Stilton and King island strains (embarrassing admission- forgot to label which one was strin 1 and which was strain 2 - and ate the remainder of cheese but can get the king island one again easily and am prepare to make that sacrifice ) Strain 1 Strain 2 together for comparison - top 2 = strain 1, boittom 2 = strain 2 next step cleanup then spore syringes easy Camembert mould should be as easy and Tempeh BTW for anyone waiting for Oyster syringes theyre on the boil too..
