culture results




The microbial load in the burr comb made larvae removal difficult without contamination, suspect larvae counts from comb contact. The Aspergillus and the Penicillium were tested with a Paenibacillus standard, some inhibition seen, suggesting both paenibacilli antifungal activity and fungal antimicrobial activity. This would have to be repeated with different dilutions, but worth future perusing.
