CCMP1379 was cryopreserved on Jul 18 2003 using 5% DMSO as a cryoprotectant.
The time required to regrow this culture, prior shipping, is approximately 11 days. If interested, please contact the CCMP for the cryopreservation methods (freezing and/or thawing protocols).
Note that aquaculture strains are always maintained as actively growing cultures, even if also cryogenically stored. Therefore, aquaculture strains (see aquaculture express ordering on the CCMP home page) can be shipped immediately upon request.

Q: We are hoping to evaluate CCMP1379 growth rates in controlled laboratory conditions. Would it be possible to obtain information on how this marine cultures is maintained at your facility (temperature, pH, nutrients, light)?
A: CCMP1379 is maintained at 24C in L1- medium and held at ~100uE.
