Great video. But I would add a tip about the importance of not talking while you're doing this, to avoid contamination.

Wow my school is so cheap! We don't have burners, we just use disposable loops. Donated loops at that.

I'm going to be streaking MacConkey agar, and that type of agar is very soft! Any tips as of how not to dig....other that not being heavy handed?

Yhoah I support u...

Z technique is much better way.. i think so.

Great vid. thanks

[Yhoah]

question: why is that he prefers the streak lines separated, is it better that the "z" technique?

[joshatube]

i was gonna ask that too. maybe its because the Z method has more connections between the bacterial colonies. not sure though. :)

My lab teacher said you can use both but also recommend this method which I like it to.
