Here are some good resources also

"BACTERIA: A field guide to" by Betsey Dexter Dyer, (this is a good book, with some recipies, but more importantly how to find and identify various bacteria for collection and culture)

Also if you need good airlocks for fermentation work, go to www.Beer-Wine.com they have them in plastic, and my favorite, glass! They also have Amylase tablets for breaking down starches for fermentation.

Here are some protocol web sites for microbiology;

Here is a nutrient recipe that works well for allot of things, but not all;

Sugar 30 gr.
Gelatin 32 gr.
Beef Bouillon 16 gr.
Epson Salts 500 mg.
Cold Water 1000 ml.

Place all ingrediants in the water EXCEPT for the GELATIN, disolve the ingrediants completly with stirring, the slow sprinkly the gelatin on the surface until it softens enough to stir in and dissolve, slowly heat to a boil, and stir constantly to prevents lumps and scourching. after boiling, pour hot into petri dishes, and sterilize (I use a pressure cooker), then allow the plates to cool, and place in fridge until ready to use.

This formula is ok, but some bacteria digest gelatin, so this won't work for all, you may need to get AGAR (seaweed extract) and work from there, locally try a good Asian grocery, sometimes they have it for certain types of candies, and other confectionary.

A request:
