About The Freshwater Diatoms (FD) Collection

David B. Czarnecki began collecting and studying freshwater diatoms as a graduate student. His collection moved with him to Loras College in 1984, where it was named and recognized universally among freshwater diatomists as the Loras College Freshwater Diatom Culture Collection. The Collection was maintained through grants to Loras College from the Iowa Science Foundation and the Iowa College Foundation.

In February 2006 Dr. Czarnecki requested that The Loras College Freshwater Diatom Collection be transferred from Loras College to UTEX. Loras College subsequently donated the entire collection to UTEX as a gift. Dr. Czarnecki died in May 2006. Strains from his collection that are maintained at UTEX will continue to be listed as the Loras College Freshwater Diatom Culture Collection in memory of Dave Czarnecki's service to the community of freshwater diatomists.

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.
