Hmm - that doesn't look right

It looks like we've found a price that wasn't discounted.

I've highlighted the element on the page with a green background, so it should be easily visible.

About The Snow Algae (SNO) Collection

The culture collection of snow algae maintained by Dr. Ron Hoham at Colgate University has been deposited in the Culture Collection of Algae at the University of Texas at Austin. The strains in this collection have all been isolated from snow and have been maintained at temperatures below 6 °C since their isolation. This collection includes isolates from eastern and western North America collected over a 35-year time period, and also includes isolates from Antarctica. Multiple isolates of the same taxon are maintained to permit research at the population level.

Most of the algae in this collection are members of Chlorophyta, but several strains are yellow-green algae (Xanthophyceae) and a few are golden algae (Chrysophyceae). Nearly all strains in the collection have been cryopreserved and in the future will be maintained at UTEX only at liquid nitrogen temperature.

These strains will survive transport at room temperature and that is the most reliable way to ship, but there is concern from the depositor that allowing them to warm during shipment may select for genotypes that are not as cold-adapted. Cultures will be shipped in a large styrofoam cooler box with ice pack.

Strain Information Only

Certain algal strains are no longer available for purchase through UTEX. Given that numerous research articles and publications, particularly those from earlier periods, may continue to reference specific UTEX strains, we will maintain and provide all accessible strain data for reference and informational purposes. In instances where these unavailable strains are cited, a related or sister strain may be found in the Algae Details section, which could present an alternative Culture Collection from which to acquire it.

Additionally, we recommend utilizing the "Search by Strain" feature on the World Federation for Culture Collections (WFCC) website to identify other Culture Collections that may possess the desired strain.
