BTO:0000316 'culture medium' attached as a parent, not adopted as the identity (NARROW). Contaminated culture medium, not contaminated soil. The earlier decision keyed on the bare leaf 'Contaminated' and applied to every path ending in it, regardless of what the path qualifies. Path: Engineered > Lab culture > Culture media > Bacteria > Contaminated (source concept habitatmech:GOLD.c7a1674db7)
