SELECTED SPECIMENS FURTHER INVESTIGATION
Polycephalum/physarum
- Wikipedia link: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physarum_polycephalum (general information around this specimen)
- TED: https://www.ted.com/speakers/heather_barnett_1 (a conference opening a window around experiments with this specimen)
- The Slime Mould Collective: http://slimoco.ning.com/
(here can be found experiments around the world around this specimen) really cool :) (personal opinion)
- Video educational video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40f7_93NIgA (Simon Garnier - assistant professor in NJIT talks about his studies)

- Video Polycephalum in technology (computer storage) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKZ2LtfDrmg
- This specimen is found in the forest and is a type of amoeba.
- Grows at a temperature of around 22° - 24°.
- Medium:
100ml of distilled water
2g of agar
Leaflets
Aliivibrio Fischeri
- Wikipedia link:
- This specimen is found globally in marine environments.
- Is found in very low quantities in almost all oceans of the world in temperate or subtropical water, lives as a symbiont in the light organ of certain fish and squid species. Grows at temperatures of 24°.
- The bioluminescence of A. fischeri is caused by transcription of the lux operon, which is induced through population-dependent quorum sensing. The population of this specimen needs to reach an optimal level to activate the lux operon and stimulate light production.
- Many people have work with this specimen trying to make their own version of the medium. Common ingredients in most media include Tryptone, yeast extract, glycerol, and roughly 3% NaCl by weight.
- Medium:
NaCl 30 g
Glycerol 1 g
Pepton (Bacxto-peptone) 10 g
Meat extract 3 g
Made up with distilled water to 1000 ml
EXPERIMENTATION
- Day 1: The extraction of Alii Vibrio Fischeri is made, and a sample of "Polysephalum/physarum in a clean environment is made.
- Day 4: I failed to extract the Alii Vibrio Fischeri into the medium, after three days there was no blue glowing as seen in the first day inside the medium that I made.
The isolation of Polysephalum/physarum was correctly made, I will wait one week for it to grow in order to implant it in a salty medium simulating the natural environment of the Alii Vibrio Fischeri.
