Algae Cultures
Algae Research Supply: Algae Culture, Arthrospira platensis (Spirulina)
$ 8.00
About the Algae: Spirulina is the common name of the cyanobacteria Arthrospira plantensis. It is commonly found all around the world making it one of the rare endemic strains of the Earth. It is also an extremophile for pH, it does very well at pH ranges up to 10.5. Spirulina is commonly used as a food or nutraceutical for humans and animals. It contains the pigment phycocyanin which is a water soluble phycobilin or photosynthetic protein. It is shaped as a beautiful helical colony called a tricome.
Forget genies, discover the magic of photosynthesis with algae in a bottle! This product can be used to resupply your stash or continue the experimentation you began with our many kits and experiments. If you need more than just algae, consider our Spirulina Culture Kit which contains everything you need to grow a laboratory-grade culture at home or at your desk. It is so much fun to grow, and easy to harvest (see Spirulina Farming Kit to grow your own!). It's a great model organism to teach photosynthesis and aquaculture.

Algae Research Supply: Algae Culture Chlorella vulgaris
$ 8.00
About the Algae: Chlorella is a genus of single-cell green algae belonging to the phylum Chlorophyta. It is spherical in shape, about 2 to 10 μm in diameter, and is without flagella. Chlorella contains the green photosynthetic pigments chlorophyll-a and -b in its chloroplast. Through photosynthesis, it multiplies rapidly, requiring only carbon dioxide, water, sunlight, and a small amount of minerals to reproduce.

Algae Research Supply: Algae Culture Nannochloropsis
$ 8.00
About the Algae: Nannochloropsis is a genus of alga within the heterokont line of eukaryotes. While they can be found in fresh and brackish waters, Nannochloropsis widely occurs in saltwater world-wide. Some Nannochloropsis species have been shown to be suitable for algal biofuel production and is popular for use in aquaculture feed and dietary supplements. Nannochloropsis is a bulldog of an algae strain, It is great for science projects as it stays in suspensionand is dificult to kill.

Algae Research Supply: Algae Culture for Isochrysis galbana
$ 8.00
About the Algae: The microalga Isochrysis galbana is a great feeder algae. We know when it is happy and healthy because when you smell it, it smells like low tide! The high lipid and DHA content make it popular as an aquaculture feed for animals such as bivalves, crustaceans, and zooplankton. Some of our coral reef friends love this strain as it brings great pigmentation into the corals.

Algae Research Supply: Algae Culture Porphyridium cruentum
$ 8.00
About the Algae: The microalga Porphyridium sp. (Rhodophyta) is a potential source for several products like fatty acids, lipids, cell-wall polysaccharides and pigments. The polysaccharides of this species are sulphated and their structure gives rise to some unique properties that could lead to a broad range of industrial and pharmaceutical applications. This is one of the ONLY red microalgae. It is used by researchers to study the red protein based pigment phycoerythrine. Often used by the aquaculture community to bring RED color into filter feeders.

Algae Research Supply: Algae Culture Anabaena variabilis
$ 8.00
About the Algae: Anabaena variabilis is a filamentous cyanobacterium. It is photosynthetic and can also convert atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia via nitrogen fixation. Anabaena variabilis is great for studying algae blooms and photosynthesis. It is often used for researching the beginnings of multicellular life due to its filamentous characterization and cellular-differentiation capabilities.
