Bioluminescent Dinoflagellates ? Take home a glowing flask with your algae pet!
Bioluminescent dinoflagellates are microscopic algae that glow blue in the dark!
In this workshop, we will create a living dinoflagellate flask. We will inoculate a grow vessel with these microorganisms and feed them. We will also set up LED lights with a timed photoperiod. Dinoflagellates need a strict light/dark cycle to maintain their circadian rhythms. When swirled at night, dinoflagellates glow bright blue!
Participants will take home a kit that includes:
- Living bioluminescent dinoflagellates
- Flask with oxygen exchange filter as the mini aquarium
- Growth lamp LEDs
- Outlet timer to control the photoperiod
