Protists - Living Material

Ideal tool for aquatic ecosystem studies. Collect periphyton samples with ease using this specialized sampler, perfect for water quality and aquatic ecosystem studies.

Water mold and fish parasite. Demonstrates sporangia and oospores. Grows on wheat seed, cucumber seed, or hemp seed in water environment. Reproduces sexually and asexually. Incubation temperature 25°C.

Cell walls made of cellulose; feeds by extending hyphae into host's tissue.

Produce a Variety of Organisms Simply by Adding Water

Test cylindrical, covered with sand granules. Soil-water medium.

Characterized by pseudopods; with or without a shell (test).

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

Characterized by green plastids and cell walls composed of cellulose.

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. 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.

Paramecium bursaria is a ciliate that contains mutualistic algae called Zoochlorella. The algae lives in the cytoplasma of the Paramecium and provides it with food. Paramecium bursaria grows in Dilute Alfalfa Medium (Hay Medium) or Soil Water Medium. Requires light for growth.

Specially Prepared “Real-Life” Combinations
The world is teeming with a wide variety of micro life, making studying samples of pond water complicated especially for the beginning student. To lessen the confusion, Ward's has prepared different culture mixes that reflect protist combinations that occur in the real world, yet eliminates the hundreds of other life-forms found in a collected sample.
