How to use the product-
In mycology, this product is often used to sterilize mushroom bags containing Grain Spawn or Substrate and over Mason Jar Lids containing liquid culture mix. Simply add the items to be sterilized in the autoclave with the tape on them. Steam or moisture will not affect the integrity of the tape.
Add to your plant tissue culture media before sterilization to ensure it is sterilized properly.
Proper Sterilization technique-
Allow the Sterilizer to reach 15psi, and then release the pressure by opening the valve until it reaches zero. This will remove any air pockets that may be present in the autoclave. Then, set a timer according to the sterilization period required.
Maintaining a constant temperature of 121 degrees Celsius for about 20-25 minutes, the tape will change from yellow to strip black.
