Plaque Notes | My plaques were roughly 3.3mm. My plaques were also turbid and circular. During the first half of my experiment, plaques were being displayed across the plates. Over time, plaques were not being seen. After multiple rounds of serial dilutions, it was determined that my plates displayed clear-forming plaques. |
