CCMP1625 was cryopreserved on Jan 10 2008 using 6% DMSO as a cryoprotectant.
The time required to regrow this culture, prior shipping, is approximately 28 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+A:
Q: I was wondering what the approximate mass of the cryopreserved algae for: CCMP1625 20L Harvested Cells?
A: While I have no previous experience with this particular strain, 20 liter cultures usually yield between 5 and 10 grams of packed wet cells (centrifuged pellet)
