No, it is not sterile
3/5

A vacuum or seal were not applied to MEA plates. The only way I would rate this is with a zero!
Processing contaminated plates resulted in a $25 loss.

So far, it's been a great success! On these plates, I have grown spores of various kinds, and so far only what I have grown has grown, which means the plates have been prepared with proper sterile techniques

The fungi have grown well, suggesting the nutrient mix is suitable So far, I haven't experienced any problems. Buying from Amazon sellers other than you, I got inferior results, most notably, slower growth that was caused by inadequate.

This is a terrible product. Invest your money wisely! Don't waste it! After I requested these, neither they gave me access to them nor did they offer any kind of support. The whole thing was a waste of time.

It is pre-contaminated, therefore, you must contaminate it yourself
3/5

They did not grow well, two were contaminated with red bacteria, and all my work was done in a clean room with a large flow hood. There was also not enough nutrients for myc to feed on and grow, so they did not perform very well.

Taking a look at the return customer review
5/5

This seller has helped me twice and I've been satisfied with my overall experience both times. This was my first order, and I received all plates in perfect condition Our first order we successfully cloned mushroom tissue and it has grown mycelium without any hiccups. The unboxing procedure revealed a fully contaminated plate upon arrival. Nine of the plates could be salvaged and were grown with healthy mycelium.
