This is the last week of the adaptation experiment! YAY!

Yeast growth in 80% D2O Time Trial 2
Yeast morphology in 80% D2O
Yeast Colonies in 60% D2O YPD
So I suck at my own microscopy technique of taking pictures and combining them. In each case I left out a pretty sizable portion of the colony. 🙁 Oh well. I’m going to do these experiments again (cause I made 2 sets of each type of solid media, 0%-100% D2O) and will be taking new images then. Can’t wait!!
80% D2O YPD Solid Media
- Water (already prepared and antibiotic added):
- 32ml D2O YPD
- 8ml DI YPD
- 0.8g agar
- Stir and heat on hotplate
- Pour 15-20ml into petri dish and allow to cool
- seal with parafilm

60% D2O Time Trial 2
Yeast grown in 60% D2O
60% D2O YPD plates Setup
- Water (already prepared and antibiotic added):
- 24ml D2O YPD
- 16ml DI YPD
- 0.8g agar
- Stir and heat on hotplate
- Pour 15-20ml into petri dish and allow to cool
- seal with parafilm
60% D2O Time Trial
Setup. I actually did this experiment yesterday, but time constraints prevented me from posting the live results (which is funny because that requires literally 5 minutes, oh well). Anyway here is some fun data:
