Product C3061, or Cyanobacteria BG-11 Freshwater Solution is meant to be used for the cultivation of cyanobacteria typically growing in freshwater. Marine species can also be grown with this solution, provided that it is supplemented with 10g/L sodium chloride and 1μg/L vitamin B12. Sea salts found in catalog no. S9883 have not been tested in combination with Product C3061, and as such it cannot be confirmed if marine species would grow in these conditions. Regarding the preparation of the Cyanobacteria BG-11 Freshwater Solution, 20 mL of the solution shall be diluted in 1 liter of water. For the cultivation of marine species, 10 grams of sodium chloride and 1 µg of vitamin B12 shall be added per liter of prepared medium.

This medium is a 50X concentrate. 20 mL of this product is sufficient to prepare 1L of 1X culture medium. This formulation is intended for use in freshwater culture. For use with marine organisms, add 10 g/L sodium chloride and 1 µg/L vitamin B12 to the prepared 1X medium. No additional trace elements are required.
