"Freeze-Dried Specimens"

Deuteromycete. “Black mold”. Produces citric acid. Common airborne contaminant. Causes aspergillosis. Incubation temperature 25°C. Sabouraud dextrose agar growth medium.

Zygomycete. Common black bread mold. Lab contaminant. Mating strain, cross with Rhizopus stolonifer (nigricans) (+) to produce zygospores. Incubation temperature 25°C. Potato dextrose agar growth medium.

Yeast reproduction

One each of foliose, crustose, and fruticose lichen. The foliose and crustose lichens are any of a wide variety of species; the fruticose lichen is either cladonia or reindeer moss. All samples are field-collected and come in a 4 oz. labeled jar.

Penicillium notatum is a deuteromycete that produces penicillin. It is available in normal and high-yield strains.

Deuteromycete. Produces penicillin. Incubation temperature 25°C. Malt extract agar growth medium.

Deuteromycete. Biological control organism. Traps nematodes. Incubation temperature 25°C. Cornmeal agar growth medium.
