Day 4

0900: Arrive eager to look at our first batch of piglet mortalities!

0903: Nothing today, so go home again.

1100: Back at the bacteriology lab to start working on the salmonella samples from yesterday. I actually managed to find my way to the lab without getting lost!

Today I innoculated tetrathionate broth with the swabs we took - which took all of 20 minutes. Starting to like this project!

1700: Can still smell pig from somewhere. Fervently hope I don't have to go to the pig farm too often over the next six weeks.
