a method that allows further growth of fungal mycelia on prepared baits. Major groups of fungi isolated using baiting techniques are those from Kingdom Chromista‚ particularly in the Class Oomycetes. The Oomycetes or “egg fungi”‚ also called water molds were previously grouped with fungi based on their filamentous growth and the presence of coenocytic hyphae‚ one of the morphological traits and characteristic of fungi. However‚ their life cycle‚ unlike that of many fungi‚ includes a diploid‚ asexually

Mold in an Archives: Identification and Treatment The appearance of mold on archival materials is a prevalent problem for libraries and museums alike. Unfortunately‚ it is an often overlooked problem‚ because it is seen as typical for older materials or it goes unrecognized altogether. The fact that mold is preventable‚ although not always easily so‚ should encourage those who want to protect documents to ensure the environment they are held in are unsuitable for mold growth. Mold often needs

Bread Mold Experiment Mold is something that we often take for granted‚ as something that makes us have to throw the bread away or the cheese smell bad. Mold is‚ in fact‚ a fascinating organism which has had many different uses over the years and our lives would not be the same without it. Most of us know that food seems to become moldy more quickly in the summer than in the winter when it is colder. Food in refrigerators seems to keep longer than food left out in the sun. Is this true? Does temperature

Bread Mold Experiment By: Stephanie Westover PURPOSE The purpose of this experiment will be to determine how temperature affects the growth of mold on wheat bread. The researchers choose this topic because she thinks it will be beneficial to find a way to keep food from molding. Determining how long bread can be stored before molding can help save money‚ prevent illness and preserve freshness. The question the researcher will attempt to answer is how freezing

The Effects of pH on Slime Mold Dg Nicole Harris BIOL181 – 059 1 December 2011 The theory that slime mold is attracted to acidic solutions was examined by the slime mold‚ Dg. Dg’s preference of pH was examined by using a variety of pH solutions in a petri dish. The data suggests that the growth of fruiting bodies observed in pH 9 was comparable to that of pH 4.

March 26‚ 2013 Methods and Materials (Bread Mold Lab) Block 1 The materials needed to conduct this experiment are six small squares of bread‚ a container of milk‚ four small Ziploc bags‚ a thermometer‚ a phone to record data and a heat lamp. The container of milk will be used for residue on the inside of two of the plastic bags. The heat lamp will be used to generate heat onto the bread towards the possibility of mold. The thermometer is used to measure the heat that the heat lamp is producing;

Polycephalum Eugenia Rita Lee Dr. Bonner BIO 111 Introduction: Physarum polycephalum is a type of slime mold of the myxogastria class that prefers warm and damp conditions. It can go through three forms‚ plasmodium‚ sclerotium‚ and sporangia. The plasmodium is the primary active state‚ where P. polycephalum consists of protoplasmic veins and multiple nuclei. During this stage‚ the slime mold surrounds its’ food and secretes enzymes to break the particles down into nutrients P. polycephalum can
