| From enriched soil sample? | Yes |
| Isolation Temperature | 37°C |

| Discovery Notes | The soil sample I took was very dry, sandy soil with small rocks and other organic matter within it. The soil was gathered 2 inches from the earth's surface. The outside temperature on the day of collection was about 72°F (21.6°C). The area the dirt sample was collected from hasn’t been developed but has some houses about 30 yards away. There were dry bushes near the location of the collection and also a large saguaro cactus. |
| Naming Notes | "Becr" came from the initials of my siblings, the "lee" part is my last name, and then there are 6 members of my family, hence the number 6 at the end of the name. |

| Plaque Notes | The plaques were about 1.7 mm in diameter. Depending on their stage of development they could range from .5mm to 1.7 mm at their most mature state. The plaques were clear except for a very thin layer of turbidity around the outside of the plaque (they looked like fuzzy rings around an otherwise clear plaque). |
