Microbial art
Microbial art,[1] agar art,[2] or germ art[3] is artwork created by culturing microorganisms in certain patterns.[4] The microbes used can be bacteria, yeast, fungi, or less commonly, protists. The microbes can be chosen for their natural colours or engineered to express fluorescent proteins and viewed under ultraviolet light to make them fluoresce in colour.
