"Ward's Phenomena"

Drosophila, the common fruit fly is widely used in genetic studies. Ward's offers a large number of mutations to help you demonstrate complex genetics concepts.

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.

Axenic culture. Food organism. Tetrahymena medium.

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

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; 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.

Each culture shipment is prepared in our laboratories and includes the "Working with Algae & Cyanobacteria" manual which contains detailed instructions for subculturing and use.

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.

Philodina sp. Easy to culture and easy to examine under a microscope because of the lack of a lorica (shell), these typical rotifers are perfect for general study. Culture instructions are included.

Freshwater; unbranched filaments with cylindrical- to slightly barrel-shaped cells; shows the characteristic H-pieces upon fragmentation of the filament.

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.

Freshwater. Unicellular. Soil-water medium. Characterized by two flagella (one inside a groove at right angles to the other); most also have tests made of cellulose and are encrusted with silica.

Freshwater. Colonial; polygonal cells. Basic culture solution.

Characterized by green plastids and cell walls composed of cellulose.
