Detailed Description
Bacteria from a deep sea cruise are being cultured in a Petri dish in a master’s degree collaboration between a student from Western Carolina University, S Gold, and SPCMSC Research Microbiologist Christina Kellogg. Dr. Kellogg inoculated several selective media made by Gold with slurry from deep-sea corals which will be used to culture and characterize coral-associated bacteria.
