In the delicate realm of spore research, contamination prevention is paramount. Our specialised mycology equipment is designed to create sterile working environments, ensuring accurate and reliable results when studying magic mushroom spores.
There are many different ways to prevent contamination of your mushroom spores from airborne elements, and the specifics of your equipment setup will vary depending on available space and the needs of your project. These are some of the most popular pieces of contamination prevention equipment:
Used to create a contained, low-airflow environment, minimising the risk of airborne contaminants entering your cultures, still air boxes are essential for inoculation and other sensitive procedures involving spore syringes, prints, and swabs.
Providing a continuous stream of HEPA-filtered air, flow hoods create an ultra-clean workspace for advanced mycological research, making them ideal for working with agar cultures and other delicate procedures.
Face masks prevent the accidental introduction of respiratory droplets and particles into your sterile environment when working at close quarters with your spore specimens. This makes them a crucial component of personal protective equipment during any mycological procedure.
Also known as isopropyl alcohol, sanitiser sprays are a must-have in any lab. Used for disinfecting surfaces, tools, and hands of potential contaminants, they are essential for maintaining a sterile workspace.
In mycology, surgical tape is most commonly used to seal petri dishes and other containers to prevent contamination and maintain sterility in the lab.
Alcohol burners help to create a localised sterile environment by using the flame to sterilise inoculation loops and other tools. It also creates a convection current that pushes air away from the immediate work area.
Accurate spore observation and analysis require a sterile environment. Contamination can introduce unwanted microorganisms, compromising the integrity of your research and leading to inaccurate results and wasted resources, not to mention wasted time already spent on the project.

Legal Considerations: It is crucial to understand that the cultivation of Psilocybe mushrooms is illegal in the United Kingdom. Our mycology equipment is intended for research and educational purposes only, focusing on the study of spores. We do not condone or encourage any illegal activities. Please ensure you comply with all local laws and regulations regarding mushroom spores.
