General description

Trace Metal Mix A5 with Co is a supplement supplying trace elements for the growth of blue green algae and act as a fertilizer. Cyanobacteria have relatively high metal requirements for optimal growth compared to other bacteria largely due to metal cofactors in the oxygenic photosynthetic electron transfer apparatus, such as cytochromes, plastocyanin and chlorophyll rings. An adequate supply of trace metals is required to maintain optimal growth, particularly as these higher metal requirements make Cyanobacteria more prone to trace nutrient limitation. Co acts as a determinant of marine cyanobacteria distribution and productivity.

Application

Trace Metal Mix A5 with Co is a supplement added to BG11-Broth (Blue Green Medium) (Cat. No. 73816), recommended for the culturing and maintenance of Cyanobacteria

Numerous articles have documented the existence of filterable bacteria. Where filtration is the chosen method of sterilization for medicinal or media components, these bacteria will by definition render products non-sterile. They may further represent a health hazard to the end

Microalgae can offer several benefits for wastewater treatment with their ability to produce large amounts of lipids for biofuel production and the high economic value of harvested biomass for biogas and fertilizer. This study found that salt concentration (∼45gL

Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause of bacteremia that can lead to severe complications once the bacteria exit the bloodstream and establish infection in secondary organs. Despite its clinical relevance, little is known about the bacterial factors facilitating the development

Digested effluents are usually deprived of the appropriate levels of organic carbon or macro- and micro-nutrients to effectively sustain microalgal growth. In this regard, Parachlorella kessleri was cultivated in an agro-waste digestate supplemented with different glucose concentrations, magnesium and trace

Chronic inflammation predisposes to aging-associated disease, but it is unknown whether immunity regulation might be important for extending healthy lifespan. Here we show that in C. elegans, dietary restriction (DR) extends lifespan by modulating a conserved innate immunity pathway that is
