Repeat it for 4 times. {{ :nchsls:c:biochemistry:document:img_20161129_113438.jpg?nolink&400 |}} -Get rid of all the water in cups and keep them in a tray.Tray should be covered with Gauze piece. {{ :nchsls:c:biochemistry:document:img_20161129_113453.jpg?nolink&400 |}} -Keep the tray in an incubator until dry at temp of 37'C(**DO NOT USE MORE THAN 37'**Because high temp change the shape of the cups). -Now the cups are ready to use.
