Tim –
I’ve bought these agar plates 3 times now. All three times my order has arrived within a week and I have not gotten a single plate with contamination. I use these for Spore germination and cleaning up spore prints. I hope you come out with a peptone blend soon that I can use for clones! Keep up the good work!
