After getting the starter cultures up and running and getting the time trial experiment running, there is another experiment to contend with. Since this whole project is about getting yeast to adapt to D2O, I’m going to track the growth of the yeast over long times (several days vs just one day). This experiment is going to be a challenge as YPD evaporates and the yeast settles in the test tube, but I’ll try to make it work.

Below is a spreadsheet of the yeast growth over time, starting with today’s 24 hour measurement.

Be sure to check it daily to see what is going on!
