Howdy,
got 3 different strains of spore prints (Golden Teacher, Mazatapec & Panaeolus) from Sporeworks. Problem is they were "inspected" by customs before being released to me. My concern is that these will be quite heavily contaminated spores now.
I can go off the PF tek & instead take option of plating out spores on Petri dishes and try get a reasonably pure culture from that but was wondering if I can introduce an antibiotic to take care of any nasty bacterial contamination.
any ideas? Comments? Advice?

I would just use em and hope for the best. If there are contams then you are screwed either way. Give em a shot. Who kows.
I am strongly against anti-biotics in the agar culture.
OK, but why?
