General description

Guillard′s (F/2) Marine Water Enrichment Solution 50 X is a concentrate of major nutrients, trace metals, and vitamins that can be diluted in filtered seawater to support the reconstitution of Guillard′s (F/2) Marine Enrichment medium. Guillard′s (F/2) Marine Enrichment medium is a widely used enriched seawater medium for growing coastal marine algae (diatoms).

Application

Guillard′s (F/2) Marine Water Enrichment Solution has been used:
  • for culturing Chromera velia CCMP2878 to study coral response to Chromera infection
  • to enrich Baltic Sea water to culture unialgal stock of Symbiodinium strains
  • as a supplement in water culture medium to culture Chaetoceros affinis (CA) inoculum
