Algae Research Supply: Algae Culture Anabaena variabilis

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.

Forget genies, discover the magic of photosynthesis with algae in a bottle!  This product can be used to start cultures or for experimentation.  If you need more than just algae, consider our Culture Kit which contains everything you need to grow a laboratory-grade culture at home or at your desk.
