    Default Contamination issues?

    So I have a liquid culture and I want to innoculate a couple spawn bags. Can I just use the same needle and keep wiping it down with alcohal. or do I need a new needle every time I go into the LC and into a bag? I don't want to risk contaminating everything so I figured I'd ask... Thanks

    Just flame sterilize it until the needle is red hot. Then wipe down the needle with alcohol.

    don't use alcohol, it doesn't go over well with fungi. Just flame your needle red hot between rounds.

    I also use the vet needles, they are quite thick, there is no way to get an LC through a regular needle.

    I think you can get an LC through an 18 gauge needle, which is what spore syringes are. No way the thick myc is getting through on a >18 gauge needle though. I have yet to try an LC with them so only time will tell, but I'm sure it will.
