All Darwin's bacteria are derived from strains held by the British National Culture Collection (NCTC). These cultures are then sub-cultured before being applied to slopes and sold into schools and colleges across the UK. By sub-culturing we are able to supply quality bacteria at affordable prices. Our bacteria is a maximum of 4 passages away from the Culture Collection’s original. If you require fewer passages, or are purchasing for non-educational purposes, please purchase directly from the NCTC. For full strain information or to purchase directly please click here.

Culture is supplied on a nutrient agar slope in a glass screw top universal bottle. Store in a fridge (2-8°C). Culture around 25°C.
