Chaetoceros muelleri

New daughter set created every four weeks

Daughter set……….…50umol quanta m-2 s-1

Mother set………….…16umol quanta m-2 s-1

Grandmother set….….16umol quanta m-2 s-1

Q+A:

Q: I was looking to order CCMP1316 and was wondering if there are any significant differences between the start culture and 1L mass culture (density, level of sterility, etc)?

A: The only difference is in the ship time. Starter cultures are ~2 weeks, 1L cultures may take a couple weeks more.

Q:And do you still have these cultures at a salinity around 32ppt?

A:Yes, our marine cultures are at ~32ppt.
