On behalf of Arunan MC:
LOOKING FOR SOME PATIENT READING & COMMENTS ON CULMINATION OF PART-I OF COLLABORATIVE ALL-INDIA LEVEL LAB (CALL).
Please consider this as another MAKER SPACE movement (this started in individual kitchens, in April 2020, across the country):
NOTE: A PG cubist from one part of the subcontinent asks a first year UG cubist to share the details (see how he spells it!) of her successful ‘make’ of the alternate home-made medium for growth of the 6 times Nobel prize winning model, the Fruitfly, that visits/ lives in every house (with hardly any recognition of its power!), so that all across the country can collaborate in further studies in their CUBE Home Labs:
Note: names of Cubists have been hidden here, and may be added back as and when they enter the conversation.
"Now that we have a successful media of ‘@AS’ CUBE Nattiia in terms of
-
good number of Larvae growth, pupae formation, next generation fruit flies
-
No contamination in the medium.
let’s devise and reproduce the medium for (all) CUBists across India who wish to make a Home Made Medium for culturing fruit flies during the lock down, so that it is a reproducible result that can be STANDARDISED for everyone!
- So the quantity of water (how did you measure the amount of water - 500ml, which vessel was used?)
- How much time did you cook the medium?
Other modifications can be added, if needed, for the medium
