The sterile Nalgene™ Erlenmeyer flasks are ideal containers for growing Pyrocystis species because they include a 0.2 µm filter in the closure to permit sterile air exchange, supporting photosynthesis and respiration. The Erlenmeyer flasks also taper to maximize surface area of the liquid-air interface for improved gas exchange. The included L1 Algal Growth Medium acts to replenish nutrients and should be used to dilute overgrown cultures. Liquids included in this kit are non-toxic and safe for student use. | The sterile Nalgene™ Erlenmeyer flasks are ideal containers for growing Pyrocystis species because they include a 0.2 µm filter in the closure to permit sterile air exchange, supporting photosynthesis and respiration.
