Silvia_84 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Hi all, I have some stocks of bacteria frozen with beads. I was wondering what method is used to streak the beads on the agar plate.Do I need to shake a bit the plate to let the beads rub on the agar?Or are you aware of other more accurate techniques to do it? Thank you in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharonY Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Bead plating is done by sideway agitation (i.e. not shaking up and down, obviously). Not my favorite method, but some prefer it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
