Freshwater. Filamentous; H-shaped cell walls. Soil-water medium.

Characterized by green plastids and cell walls composed of cellulose.

This filamentous cyanobacteria is comprised of heterocysts and akinetes that are terminally located on the filament.

Freshwater. Filamentous. Trichomes radiating from basil heterocysts. Basic culture solution.

Shipped in a form that provides the best quality specimen. Most are supplied in 16 x 125 mm tubes, 2 oz. jars, or 8 oz. jars.

Freshwater. Filamentous. Unbranched trichome, thinly sheathed; oscillating movement. Basic culture solution.

Shipped in a form that provides the best quality specimen. Most are supplied in 16 x 125 mm tubes, 2 oz. jars, or 8 oz. jars.

Marine. Filamentous; unbranched thallus. Erdschreiber’s medium.

Characterized by reddish plastids (rhodoplasts).

Freshwater. Colonial; net-like structure with multinucleated cells. Basic culture solution.

Characterized by green plastids and cell walls composed of cellulose.

Freshwater. Unicellular; triangular desmid. Basic culture solution. Characterized by green plastids and cell walls composed of cellulose.

Freshwater. Unicellular; heart-shaped cell. Soil-water medium.

Characterized by a lack of rigid cellulosic walls, instead these organisms have pellicles made of protein. They store paramylon instead of starch.

Marine. Unicellular; contains same pigments as other Golden Algae but contains haptonema, unique to Haptophyceae. Coccoid, from coccoliths. Marine medium. Characterized by golden yellow plastids.

Axenic culture. Food organism. Tetrahymena medium.

Characterized by cilia; nearly all possess two types of nuclei.

Freshwater, Unicellular; pennate, with bilateral symmetry. Diatom or basic medium.

Characterized by shells (tests) made of silica, in two parts.

Marine. Filamentous; freely branched. Erdschreiber’s medium.

Characterized by green plastids and cell walls composed of cellulose.

Freshwater. Colonial. Sheet of many cells one cell thick. Soil-water medium.

Shipped in a form that provides the best quality specimen. Most are supplied in 16 x 125 mm tubes, 2 oz. jars, or 8 oz. jars.

Freshwater. Filamentous. Unbranched, contorted filaments. Basic culture solution.

Shipped in a form that provides the best quality specimen. Most are supplied in 16 x 125 mm tubes, 2 oz. jars, or 8 oz. jars.

Freshwater; unbranched cells with parietal chloroplasts; produces zoospores.

Live Cultures are supplied with media in 16 x 125 mm tubes, 2 oz. jars, or 8 oz. jars. Fast delivery is available directly from our laboratory. Please specify a delivery date.

Canadian Customers:
CFIA and PHAC regulations require customers to submit a completed inspection checklist and signed statement of facilities compliance before receiving certain cultures. A customer service representative will contact you if documentation is required.

Anabaena is a genus of filamentous, un-branched Cyanobacteria consisting of bead-like cells and enlarged spores or heterocysts.
