I remember a "mother" formed in one of my salad dressings about a year ago and I thought my dressing had gone bad way before the expiration. After searching if it was still okay to use on salad, I found it was called a mother and that people consider them very lucky. Cool video!
@@mhl653 The reason might be that you can use the mother of vinegar as a cultivation colony to produce more batches of vinegar, much like bacteria colonies in yogurt. It's not a bad thing, it's just the bacteria that make vinegar what it is.

Wow, this brought back a memory of something I had completely forgotten about! I was probably 8 years old and I remember my brother (5 yo) and I finding a blob of something that looked exactly like that and it covered the entire bottom of the jar. I don’t remember what we found it in. We poked at it for like an hour, wondering what in the world it was, smelling it (it was vinegary), touching it, squishing it, holding it up to the light…. Now I know!

What event specifically? The boob light pooper? Grab both railroad tracks and crack them like whips just to show them who's boss then put one foot on each rail and skate off down the tracks? Or the two cylindrical cubes? Those were the only things in the news in 2001.
@@dickJohnsonpeter cracking railroad tracks like whips, boob light poopers... that's amazing, what are those? is that a reference to something? cause i couldn't find anything about any of those and it's fascinating
Oh, that particular life form isn’t beautiful at all. Especially when invasive bacteria form such a biofilm somewhere in your body. Makes it incredibly hard to treat.
I remember one time one of those formed in a bottle of red wine vinegar I had, and it was weirdly large, like I'd say 10cm in diameter or so. Just a bit fat circle like a piece of jellied cranberry sauce. I was freaked out by it and didn't know what it was, but looking back that was actually pretty cool.
my favorite part of this video is around 3:00. Just previous to this he says that cellulose is responsible for holding the bacteria together, but that cellulose is not viewable by optical microscope so we can't see it, only it's effects. This is so clear at the 3 minute mark you see the bacteria moving as if laying on a wavy sheet of the invisible material. Way cool.
My old balsamic vinegar had 3 blobs in it, had to break the glass bottle to see it up close. Now I know it's called a "vinegar mother". The vinegar was still good tho, used it on my adobo.
This is why if you want to have the full benefits of the vinegar you need to shake the bottle up in order to get that bacteria into your dose. Always mix it with some water because drinking it straight can be damaging to your esophagus
@@jzimmerli8472 vinegar bacteria dont create alcohol. They create acetic acid. They may feed on alcohol or sugar. this is not alcoholic fermentation its acetic
I used to drive truck from out of south Florida, I'd leave my truck in the hot sun at the terminal while home on my down time, well after returning to work and pulling out my balsamic vinegar which was about 2 months old to use on some food, I noticed a big clump of slime clogging it up, so I shook it up real good and used it anyway, was good! Eventually used the whole bottle up. I think I read you can pull it out and put it in some wine to make more vinegar?
This makes me wonder if that's what it was in the bottom of my Gatorade bottle when I was a kid. My dad would buy the really big bottles, and I would slowly drink them over the course of a day or two. Well one time I left it sit out over night, and the next day there was an almost clear substance floating near the bottom of the bottle. My dad, being a biology teacher, assumed it was some kind of collection of bacteria, but didn't actually know what it was. Had me throw it out, and I always wondered what it actually was.
All the bacteria that can survive in vinegar are acidophiles - the TSA agar has the wrong environment for them, you would need some kind of low pH acidic broth for culture rather than a solid medium, probably
I found one of those snot chunk "mother" thing in my gallon of Milo's sweet tea...

I recently purchased 4 bottles of malt & white vinegar from Home Bargains. All four had "the mother" in. It knocked me sick!! Looked like raw egg & phlegm floating around.

Hi Sci-Inspi, hey I have a question, would you make a video about penicillin or others antibiotics killing bacterias under the microscope? That would be interesting to watch. Of course, with great care to not create a super bacteria hehe.
Hi Luis, I can try, although some antibiotic action won’t be visible, for example, antibiotics that slow down growth or prevent cell division won’t really be visible as you will just see the bacteria sitting there not growing.
I take shots of apple cider vinegar once in a while when I’m feeling sick … is this stuff what I’m putting inside my body? Or is this after it’s sat for a while?
I love that the name "mother" signifies they stay together as a collection of bacteria, almost like a big happy family of healthy bacteria. It's almost adorable in that sense 💜

It was very interesting to look at.
Beautiful video and music! Much love and respect from Barcelona

I read the quote on the title and was like, "Hey, I'm a mother! I'm not a bacterium!" Then I saw the vinegar bottle 😅
Totally thought it was gonna be an egg under the microscope

Can you do lemon vs bacteria, please? thank you :3
You got the good Braggs Vinegar. Mine seems fake as instead of mother i have what appears to be dirt or sand at the bottom of the bottle.
I always thought vinegar is sterile since it is used by so many eco people as a cleaning/disinfect product
This vid is cool, like study things to do
I am amazed... yet disgusted...

why does it look like an egg

Slightly
great playing!

It would, although I suspect the cellulose will interfere with the staining process.

Shouldn't vinegar be aseptic?
It is, but these bacteria produce it so they are resistant.
