Infrastructures

You are here:

Collection room

Environmentally controlled chamber maintained at 19 °C, operating under a 12:12 h light/dark photoperiod with light intensity ranging from 10 to 30 µmol photons m⁻² s⁻¹, optimized for growth and maintenance of cyanobacteria and microalgae.

Isolation Room

Room maintained at 22–24 °C for strain isolation and the maintenance of temperature-sensitive cyanobacteria and microalgae. Equipped with a flow chamber, microscopes, and incubators (3–70 °C), under a 14:10 h light/dark cycle with 10–30 µmol photons m⁻² s⁻¹ light intensity.

Genetics Room

Specialized genetics room equipped with thermocyclers and chambers for sensitive procedures, including DNA extraction and purification. Maintained under controlled conditions to ensure precision and contamination-free analysis.

Culture Growth Room

Large-scale culture room for growing up to 80 liters of cultures, maintained at 20–23 °C under a 16:8 h light/dark cycle with 10–30 µmol photons m⁻² s⁻¹ light intensity. Equipped with bioreactors for optimized conditions, ideal for large-scale cultivation and optimization of cyanobacteria and microalgae.
