[] Where to buy mold plates

I was at Home Depot today, asked for mold plates. They didn't know what I was

talking about. I could sworn somebody said you could get them there?

I've seen them at Home Depot. They are also available at some

pharmacies - the one we get them at is a compounding pharmacy.

I have also seen them at www.natlallergy.com and at www.aehf.com

The only thing I don't get about the ones at Home Depot is I always

understood that you keep them refrigerated until ready to use them.

It keeps them " fresh " .

You might check out www.homedepot.com as well.

Hope that helps.

Well the ones at Home Depot are empty culture dishes and then a vial

of liquid. You pour the liquid into the culture dishes and then you

wait an hour for it to become firm. After an hour you take lid off

of culture dish and place it in room. After another hour you put

lid back on it and let it sit for anywhere from 24 to 72 hours.

They say if nothing has grown in 72 hours, that is a negative test.

As soon after you put lid back on and let it sit you see something

growing, you can mail to lab for analysis. I guess you essentially

make your own culture plate with dish and vial of liquid. Liquid

doesn't gel until air gets to it.

Okay, I see. Thanks, Barb. It makes sense since you add the stuff

when you are ready to test.
