Dosed bacteria with 30 seconds of UV light (in the Bio-Rad hood). Covered (so impermeable to light) and put in 37C incubator for 1 hour.

After one hour of exposure, there is no significant difference between the UV-dosed bacteria and the non-dosed bacteria. We will wait to see if it just takes more time to develop color. Otherwise, we might expose them to larger amounts of UV radiation to see if that has an effect.
