The Deed is Done
During the procedure I could not get any pictures, but at the end of the process here is what I am left with. The aluminum foil containing box is where the plates are contained. (This is done because where do you put seeds? Answer: The ground. So is there much light down there? Answer: No.)
You can see the laminar flow hoods that are used to maintain sterility to the air while the seeds are being plated and there is also ethanol and a flame used to keep the instruments clean that are used. There are a few extra plates that I have as back-ups in case there is contamination noticed on the first plate.
I am fortunate to have access to these facilities and there is a lot of research that has gone into this project, now all that I can do is wait…
