Maintenance of Bacterial Cultures on Anhydrous Silica Gel
Lennox, John E.
American Biology Teacher, 39, 3, 152-154, Mar 77
Suspensions of 20 different cultures were grown on appropriate media, then pipetted into sterile anhydrous silica gel. Silica gel cultures after incubation and refrigerated storage were tested for viability. Results showed little mutation, low replication, low contamination, minimal expenses, and survival up to two years. (CS)
