@@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.

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 know the focus is on the micro shots, but your music has gotten to be so impressive! Not sure if you write/record yourself but just wanted to shout out the creator(s)! ✌😊
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.
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.
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
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 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.
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?
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
@@jzimmerli8472 vinegar bacteria dont create alcohol. They create acetic acid. They may feed on alcohol or sugar. this is not alcoholic fermentation its acetic
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 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. I know you can still use vinegar with it in,but i couldnt. I tried to pour it out of one,it got stuck!! All 4 bottles were binned. Ive not been able to use vinegar since. Chips just dont taste the same....😔
I think you use them to create vinegar from drinking alcohol. I could be wrong, I haven't done my research on it. I don't think you'd want to eat it though.

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?

As far as I can tell this is similar to what is used to make kambucha? I'm on mobile and probably spelled that wrong sorry. I watched some videos on it even though I find it disgusting and they use a bacteria mother thing too. People claim kambucha is super healthy so maybe?

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 😅

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

Can you culture the vinegar mother?
mother is a bit of an odd term for it

It is, but these bacteria produce it so they are resistant.
