Enrichment cultures, dilution to extinction, batch and continuous cultivation, plate and cellto-cell communication will be part of the training. Participants will design appropriate cultivation media and growth circumstances for photoautotrophic and chemoauto- and heterotrophic microorganisms. A matrix of different marine systems, isolation techniques and culturing methods will be offered to the participants. In small groups, the participants will discuss and practice different isolation techniques for microbes including open seawater, marine sediments and substrates (e.g. Morning lectures will be given by leading microbiologists who will present their ideas about the design of culture media, single cell isolation techniques, identification, and screening for bioactive compounds and their application by the biotechnology industry.ĭemonstrations and hands-on practical work related to these topics will be carried out in the afternoons. During this two-week course, participants will interact with experts in the field and obtain first-hand experience of isolation and cultivation design along with various other techniques.
The MaCuMBA summer school on sampling, isolation and cultivation of marine microorganisms takes place from Monday 13 – Friday 24 July 2015 July 2015. MaCuMBA Summer School 2015: Sampling, Isolation & Cultivation of Marine Microorganismsġ2 – 24 July 2015, Texel, The Netherlands
