I live in Illinois, in the United States.
All the strain libraries I have contacted have rejected me, as I am not a part of a university or business.
The strains I want to work with are all non-pathogenic - I am primarily interested in fermentation and unique metabolic activities. I have my own laboratory and the full capacity to maintain and preserve cultures.
I am hopeful that there might be another way, though I understand if nothing can be done.
Thank you,
