Detail
There are many types of fungi. Some have very similar characteristics, while others have distinctly different shapes. The method of classifying fungi is crucial for accurately identifying and indicating their strains, and minimizing contamination from fungal cultures is essential. Therefore, the development of a new type of slide placement equipment for fungal cultivation can significantly reduce the time needed for repetition, decrease the amount of nutrients required for cultivation, and reduce the presence of other contaminants when using traditional slide-based fungal cultivation techniques.
