[Procedure]

・Using a toothpick, touch the E. coli growing within the punctured area.

・Streaking for a Single Colony

1) Using the toothpick, gently spread E.coli over a section of the plate, as shown in the diagram, to create streak #1.

2) Using a fresh toothpick, drag through streak #1 and spread E.coli over a second section of the plate, to create streak #2.

3) Using a third toothpick, drag through streak #2 and spread E.coli over the last section of the plate, to create streak #3.
