Mature Drosophila are cultured in our own labs, and are marked with the culture initiation date. Culture is shipped in our instant medium in a shatterproof vial. The Fruit Fly pupae will usually appear within ten days of the ship date. You will also receive WARD’S Drosophila Culture Guide. Note: We can supply any of our single strains in the larger quantity for 100 students. Call our Customer Service department for details.
