Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

Cyanobacteria: “True bacteria with a prokaryotic cell structure and containing chlorophyll-a(a photo - pigment characteristic of eukaryotic algae and higher plants)”, are found in almost every conceivable environment, from oceans to fresh water to bare rock to soil. A procedure has been developed to isolate and cultivate Gleocapsa spp. an aquatic cyanobacterial spp. using various novel research techniques for sampling like Direct scrubbing, water scum sampling, and for Cultivation and Isolation like Capillary Transfer Technique, Transfer with help of Glass Beads, Transfer with help of Filter Paper, as a final result pure culture of Cyanobacterial spp. was obtained.
