Physarum Polycephalum Literature

Wikipedia link: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physarum_polycephalum Physarum polycephalum, also referred as slime molds, belongs to the supergroup Amoebozoa, phylum Mycetozoa, and class Myxogastria. P. polycephalum, often referred to as the “many-headed slime,” is a slime mold that inhabits shady, cool, moist areas, such as decaying leaves and logs. It is sensitive to light; in particular, light can repel the slime mold and be a factor in triggering spore growth.

The forth week, 13.11.2018

I made a new sample with a new medium. Parallel to the samples that I use for the experiment I started to use this new Medium to grow the specimen.

Medium:
- 100ml of distilled water
- 1g of agar
- oat flakes

Second Experience of Physarum with Medium of Potato and Oat

The sixth week, 27.11.2018

I made a new sample with a new medium. Parallel to the samples that I use for the experiment I started to use this new Medium to grow the specimen (to have live healthy samples to experiment), I started from the formula that Fernanda Caicedo gets to in her previous experiments, and I altered for my special use. [1], EIGHTH EXPERIMENT.

Medium:
- 100 ml water
- 12 gr cooked potatoes
- 12 gt oat flakes
- (mix together)
- 2 gr Agar
- Mix all together and boiled for 2 minutes

After this Experiment, I made an other Medium
Medium:
- 150 ml water
- 12 gr cooked potatoes
- 12 gt oat flakes
- (mix together, filter)
- 2 gr Agar
- Mix all together and boiled for 2 minutes
