Why do you wrap an agar plate in paper before incubation?

Wrapping an agar plate in paper before incubation helps to prevent moisture condensation on the lid of the plate which could potentially cause contamination. The paper acts as a barrier to reduce the chances of any external contaminants entering the plate during incubation.


Why bacteria grows faster ion open air than in refrigerator?

The incubation time is important because however long your culture is kept in incubation affects how many colonies you will have at the end. A short incubation time will result in minor bacterial growth, whereas a longer incubation will result in more colonies, as you're giving the bacteria more time to grow. Be careful, if you leave your culture in incubation for too long, the bacteria will begin to use up all of the agar and start competing for food resources. If left even longer, this will consequently result in the death of your culture.


How can you shorten the incubation time during the lysis process?

You can shorten the incubation time during the lysis process by increasing the temperature or using a higher concentration of lysis reagents. Additionally, optimizing the lysis protocol and disrupting the sample more effectively can also help reduce the incubation time.
