The IFCB HAB Kit allows you to have a kit on han to sample for harmful algal blooms, or other water quality testing.. The kit includes everything you need to collect and send a HAB / cHAB or Water sample to our lab. We think this kit is perfect for lake associations, beach monitoring programs, those with limited supplies, and those who want to have a kit on hand "just in case" a HAB concern arises. Your sample will be fresh and unpreserved, so need to ship as soon as possible after it's taken.
This sample will be run through our Imaging FlowCytobot (IFCB, McLane Research Labs) which captures images of particles as they pass through a flow-cell. Algal images are then identified using an a custom PhycoTech classifier. Data will be returned to you in excel and pdf formats.
Kit includes following materils:
Naphrax is a synthetic resin. Because of its surface contact with the diatom frustules, its resolution qualities are equivalent to that of a mountant with a minimum refractive index of 1.74.
Pre-polymerized HPMA mounting resin - 100mL. This HPMA mounting medium will make approximately 450 slides.
The PhycoTech Nannoplankton Counting Chamber is redesigned after the Palmer-Maloney counting chamber and is used to hold a known volume of sample for quantitative counting of cells with a microscope. The PhycoTech nannoplankton counting chamber has several advantages over other cells and hemocytometer:
The PhycoTech Sedgwick-Rafter Counting Cell is a standard counting cell designed for counting larger plankton on a compound microscope (up to 200x) or on an inverted microscope (higher magnifications possible).
Our Image library currently includes over 5,000 images representing 12 freshwater divisions and classes (2,000 new images released in 2017 update). The set includes multiple microscopic enhancements including bright field, phase, Nomarski, and epifluorescent shots. We updated algal name changes published on Algaebase.org.

Add these glass coverslips for easy replacement of lost or broken coverslips. This size works best with the Sedwick Rafter Cell we offer, but can be used for any purpose that this rectangular cover clip will fit. Suggested use with the Sedgwick Rafter Cell (P-0042).

The PhycoTech Sedgwick-Rafter Counting Cell with grid is an improvement on the original design using a non-corrodible ceramic rectangular frame and etched grid. The Sedgwick-Rafter Counting Cell is a standard counting cell designed for counting larger plankton on a compound microscope (up to 200x) or on an inverted microscope (higher magnifications possible).
