[DIYbio] Preserving Agar Art

Hi all,

Has anyone out there doing Agar Art found a reliable way to "preserve" the art once it's finished. We've tried simply pouring a two-part epoxy over the plates, but that doesn't stop bacterial growth. We've also tried brief UV exposure prior to pouring the epoxy but no luck either. I've read it's possible to use formalin to fix the art but I'm not sure about how to do that. Any recommendations?
