Building a library of open-source hardware for use in fungiculture labs
Having a laminar flow hood is essential for any professional-grade fungiculture lab. It allows for a level of aseptic work and quality control that a still-air box cannot match.
A key technology in any lab which is inoculating a large amount of substrate regularly is switching from flame-sterilising tools to using a contactless induction steriliser.
Compacting substrate in PF-Tek jars takes longer and is messier when using one’s hands, so we created a 3D-printable tamper to make the job easier and faster.
