I recently saw a stentor get flattened by the cover glass, enough to rupture the cell membrane, squashed it like a pancake. I added more water, and after a little bit it was acting just fine like nothing happened. I put that stentor back in the micro habitat. They are as tough as can be.
I've never seen a green algae cell division! This is fantastic!!!! I've only witnessed one cell division myself, it was a vorticella binary fission and captured it! If anybody wants to see it, it's on my amateur youtube channel if you want!!!
Not going to lie as a joke once I put a cookie on the seat that a fat lass sits on and I saw her sit on it and when she got up after a few mins the cookie was gone, I for some reason shouted out loud "Lies" and then pretended it never happened.
Amazing! I've been trying to find my Bulsaria for 3 weeks and I just stumbled upon them today when I looked at my samples and saw a larger than usual microbe swimming around. At the beginning of the video you had the Bulsaria being biolumicent, how did you do this? What type of light(Phase Contrast, Dark field, so on) was it and did you use any specific disks?
@@KambizMT Very cool! I don't mean to ask for too much but perhaps you could make a quick video of how to make those disks?(Even showing me what they look like is enough) I'd very much like to see in that type of dark field..I hope you can do it!
@@Suffex_1 I simply used a disk and put it on the condensor. Best diameter of the disk for my microscope, at least, was 12 mm. I did not use it for a long time, now, not sure where I put it :-). But, there are nice videos on RU-vid. I hope this helps, good luck!
