More tips

[Antonio R. Franco]

	Talking about tips.
	Now Olivier have broken the ice, I will give another tip, and 
I expect the netlanders to do the same to enrich our network.
	To get rid of bacterial contaminants, I use antibiograms discs. I 
stripe a line of Chlamy cells in a TAP solid media and have several of 
these discs close of such a line. This way, I can use several antibiotics 
at the same time and in the same Petri dish. Tetracycline, Cefotaxime, 
Trimethoprim, erythromycin, ceftixozyme are fine. Chlamy cells isolated 
in this way, remain in pure cultures for a long time.
