“…Even so coccoid algae, which were very small after being so thinned, were easily isolated from lake waters. After obtaining single cells (Filaments of Cyanobacteria cells or cell colonies of Chlorophyta), they were transferred to BG-11 medium (NaNO3, 15; K2HPO4, 0.4; MgSO4·7H2O, 0.75; CaCl2·2H2O, 0.36; citric acid, 0.06; iron (III) ammonium citrate, 0.06; Na2-EDTA, 0.01; Na2CO3, 0.2 g/L, 1 mL; trace elements solution, (H3BO3, 61; MnSO4·H2O, 169; ZnSO4·7H2O, 287; CuSO4·5H2O, 2.5; (NH4)6Mo7O24·4H2O, 12.5 mg/L) in accordance with the procedure stated in Rippka (1988) (Katırcıoğlu, Aslım, Türker, Atıcı & Beyatlı, 2008;Rippka, 1988). This medium which has been frequently used for the growth of Cyanobacteria and Chlorophyta.…”
