Continuation of culture evaluation



A typical cluster.






This one is weird it has interesting internal morphology.
I have seen others without pigmentation, and many moving entities inside the membrane. If I see more like those, I will post video.






Typical cell. I can't even tell if it grows from the "rosegerms" shown in previous post's micrographs.




These micrographs show developing structures, that I admit, were unexpected, and completely unexplainable, at least so far.
I have made some adjustments to the growth medium, by infusing carbon dioxide into the broth.
These structures may be producing a pigment, because I do not remember contaminating with stains. The structures are reddish-orange, and look like they could be attempting to assemble a larger organism.
This does exist in nature, but usually from decimated multicellular life-forms.
Anyway, I did not see these in initial scans, now they are everywhere.
I was expecting cell clusters to form, but the medium is different from the one that supported these cell groups. However, there are cellular organisms developing in this medium as well, and I have posted a micrograph of one of them below.
