robsteranium@lemmy.world 3 days agoCan you really isolate a single cell without a laboratory?! What sort of equipment? This sounds more involved than just innoculating some wort with a spoonful of yeast sediment…
I tried to look at yeast under a 40x-640x microscope but just saw a brown blur! I presumed you would need expensive stains/ growth media to experiment properly.

It’s quite easy and microscope is unnecessary for this. Basically you spread it on petri dish and each dot (colony) originated from one cell.
This yt playlist goes quite deep in to it, you can follow it as instructions for yeast home lab.
