He loves them:) ## Features - ALGAE CULTURE: In our labs in San Diego we grow algae and zooplankton cultures for most habitats on our planet (and perhaps Mars!) We carry freshwater, brackish, marine, and extremophile cultures of algae. They grow to exhibit colorful pigments of red (phycoerythrin), orange (carotenoids), brown (fucoxanthin), blue green (phycocyanin), and our favorite->green (chlorophyll). Our algae strains have been selected because they are grown well 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. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B073T8Y627 | | Brand | Algae Research and Supply | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 26 Reviews | | Item Dimensions | 23 x 8 x 8 Centimeters | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 23 x 8 x 8 Centimeters | | Manufacturer | Algae Research Supply | | Manufacturer Part Number | AC | | Model Number | AC | | Number of Items | 1 | | Size | 500 mL | | UPC | 730656339550 | ## Images ![Algae Research Supply Algae Culture Chlorella Vulgaris, Perfect for School Science Fairs/Projects, Experiments & Classrooms (500ml) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81qjBKOfErL.jpg) ![Algae Research Supply Algae Culture Chlorella Vulgaris, Perfect for School Science Fairs/Projects, Experiments & Classrooms (500ml) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91CEPGkzlqL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size, Number Of Items** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what it says it is. *by C***N on 8 June 2020* My son needed this for his science fair project.
