Portugal, Olhão, Salinas of Necton - Companhia Portuguesa de Culturas Marinhas S.A. The assignment to the species Oscillatoria sp. is preliminary. Phototrophic. It cannot be excluded that the strain produces cyanobacterial toxins that can be dangerous to humans and pets. DSM 101364 is a non-axenic culture. (Medium 1673, incubation time: more than 14 days, 23°C). At the DSMZ, cyanobacteria cultures are usually cultivated without agitation in 25 cm2 plastic flasks with filter screw caps. To subculture DSM 101364, shake the old culture flask to dispense the cyanobacteria and transfer a volume of 3 - 6 ml in order to inoculate 15 ml of fresh medium in a new tissue culture flask. Light cycle: 16 hours of illumination at 600 lux and 8 hours dark period. Transfer interval of 4 weeks.
