Using a micropipette with sterilized 0.1 mL yellow tips from its box, 0.1 mL of test tube C was transferred onto the turning table with the lid over the petri dish to reduce airborne contamination, and the petri dish was spun with the metal spreader over it to spread its contents onto the petri dish. The yellow tip was then discarded into its appropriate container. The metal spreader was then sterilized via the method mentioned earlier. The petri dish was left upside down, again to prevent condensation and reducing its potential disruption to its growth pattern. These steps were repeated for test tube D and E. The metal spreader was then sterilized again for any future uses. These plates for C, D, E, and the streaking plate were left upside down, taped and labeled with the section and lab ID number and then incubated for 2 days at 30 degrees Celsius and refrigerated until the following lab
