Algae Research Supply Algae Culture Kit Spirulina | School Science Fair & Classroom Experiment

• ALGAE CULTURE: Grown in laboratory settings in San Diego, these algae and zooplankton strains represent a wide range of habitats including freshwater, brackish, marine, and extreme environments. Cultures display vibrant natural pigments such as red (phycoerythrin), orange (carotenoids), brown (fucoxanthin), blue-green (phycocyanin), and green (chlorophyll). These strains are selected for reliable growth in bottles and flasks.
• SCIENCE PROJECT: Teachers, parents, and students - grow algae easily and get great results for inquiry-based projects. Because algae grow FAST experiments take a fraction of the time as land-plants (and algae is cooler!) Great experiments: toxicology, light quality, environmental changes, algae blooms. Blog posts detail science-fair winners and other projects. Students have sent our algae into SPACE THREE TIMES (would have been four, but the rocket exploded.. we still love you Space X.)
• WHO WE ARE: Algae Research Supply is a small group of teachers and scientists with a mission of educating the next generations on aquatic science. Over 50% of the planet's oxygen comes from algae, however we are not emphasizing algae's importance in school- our mission is to make it EASY, AFFORDABLE, and REPEATABLE to teach algae in classrooms.

• Prepare Culture Water — Add salts to 500 mL drinking water, mix thoroughly, and pour into the flask.
• Inoculate & Incubate — Add 1 mL inoculum to the flask, place in a well-lit area, and maintain temperature around 20-25°C.
• Monitor & Care — Observe pigment changes, ensure proper light, and avoid contamination. Cultures grow within days.
