Message-ID: Hi everyone, I've got a bit of a quandary and I'd like to hear your input. My roommate bakes bread, and I do cell culture at the lab. I know that some labs have experienced yeast contamination of their cell lines, attributed to baking or brewing at home. Do you have any particular tips, other than stringent good lab practice, that can really help prevent any contamination? I can't prohibit her from baking (nor do I want to), but are there any special precautions that she/we can take at home? And from your experience: are there any of you who do bake bread at home, without problems at work? (am I worrying overly much?)

Message-ID: <4B0D7D0C.8050603@mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk> Dear colleagues, I have a temperature sensitive mutant strain, that also grows in red colonies on Phloxine B plates at 30C. How do I distinguish diploidy from a reduced viability due to the mutation? In other words, how can I reassure myself that I have a haploid mutant strain? Thanks in advance!

You can check under microscope.
