| Plaque Notes | After 24 hours the plaques were all clear and ranged in diameter from 0.5mm- 3mm. The plaques were also circular in shape. After 48 hours each plaque was had a ring of turbid growth and a clear center. They plaques grew and became amorphous in shape ranging from 1mm-6mm in diameter. |
