Strains of T. erythraeum were isolated from the nearshore waters of the Bay of Bengal (11\u00b029 N 79\u00b049 E) during the pre-bloom period in March, 1965, at a depth of 9 to 12m. Modified, enriched, Erdschreiber medium was used for laboratory cultivation of T. erythraeum. A differential concentration of streptomycin 6 mg\/100 ml, tetracycline 5 mg\/100 ml and sulfadiazine 4 mg\/100 ml was used to inhibit the microbial growth in cultures. Difficulties experienced in the initial culture stages of T. erythraeum and the necessary specific instructions employed are described in detail.<\/p>\n<p>Original source of abstract and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.springerlink.com\/content\/lu16311418377132\/\">ordering page here<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b><span style=\"color:red;\">Nature <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/ref\/oil\/or\/or.html\">gave us<\/a> oil from algae; perhaps <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/ref\/story\/story.html\">we should try<\/a> Nature&#8217;s way again<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/\">Oilgae &#8211; Oil &amp; Biodiesel from Algae<\/a><\/b><br \/><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/blog\/\">Oilgae Blog<\/a><\/b>; The <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/blog\/dir\/dir.html\">complete list of Oilgae Blog articles<\/a><\/b>.<br \/><b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/algae\/oil\/biod\/research\/os\/algos.html\">algOS &#8211; Biodiesel from Algae Open Source<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>About Oilgae &#8211; <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oilgae.com\/\">Oilgae &#8211; Oil &amp; Biodiesel from Algae<\/a><\/b> has a focus on biodiesel production from algae while also discussing alternative energy in general.
