About Spore Syringes
A spore syringe contains millions of viable spores suspended in sterile water. Unlike liquid culture (which is live mycelium), spores are the starting point for cultivation, offering genetic diversity and the opportunity to isolate vigorous strains. Spore syringes are ideal for microscopy, slide work, and for cultivators interested in starting cultures on agar before expansion.
Handling & Storage
Refrigeration recommended: Keep between 35–46°F for maximum viability.
Sterile practice: Always work in a clean environment, preferably in a still air box or under a flow hood.
Shake before use: Distribute spores evenly prior to inoculation or microscopy work.
Reuse: If using the needle more than once, sterilize thoroughly between applications.
