This anomaly is indicative of the larger challenge of culturing various microbial species, referred to as microbial “unculturability.” This cannot be explained by the use of agar alone or by the substitution of an alternative gelling agent, but rather by the difficulties in consistently recreating on an agar plate the multi-variable environment in which microbes grow naturally. Given such challenges, the risk of shortages, and the vulnerabilities of the agar supply chain, why is it so difficult to find suitable alternatives?

Thanks to the added level of customization, I was able to capture higher-quality photos that looked truer to life than those from the Instax Mini 12, Mini 41, and Mini Evo. Granted, the Mini 99 is an analog camera, not a hybrid like the Evo, so you shouldn’t buy it if you also want to print smartphone photos. The newer model is also less user-friendly than the Mini 12 and Mini 41, so I wouldn’t recommend it for young children. Still, for an advanced analog instant camera, it’s relatively easy to set up and use, rendering it as much fun for budding photographers as more experienced shooters.
