What is gum media?

Gum media is a yellowish liquid. I have a microscpe and A little bottle of Gum media came with it. It has little chunky pieces, when I look in the microscope. It doesn't smell good. so I wouldn't eat it. I have been studying it under the microscope in my lab. There are many different ideas where it came from. You can search, the internet and no one knows that much about it. It can't come from a gum tree. Tree sap is not a thin liquid. No. It can't be from whale blubber. I just read another article from a scientist. Gum media has not been steralized. So gross... don't drink it people.
