Whiteboard picture of today’s ( 26th November 2020 ) CUBE CHATSHAALA.
The Discussion was on Moina (Model system), @⁨Saida Cube Rotifers⁩ has established CUBE HOME LAB in Bandra Mumbai, where she’ll be maintaining Moina, which she got today from Drishtant…

We had a Discussion on immediate plans of saida with the Model system -Moina.

How to maintain Moina culture?..what all things are required to maintain the culture?..


How do we identify Moina??
There was huge discussion and confusion with respect to the Phylum:Arthropoda

What are the key characters of Phylum Arthropoda and we also listed some organism comes under the same phylum…

@⁨Saida Cube Rotifers⁩ @⁨Drishtant Cube Moina⁩ @⁨Prashant Cube Sensing⁩ @⁨Arunima SN Nattika Cardamine⁩
What’s key character of Phylum Arthropoda and how class insecta organisms are distinguished from the Phylum Arthropoda.

Why crow doesn’t belongs to the Phylum Arthropoda since crow also has jointed legs?..


How do enrich the culture taken from a pond or a lake?..

Is there any chance to get Moina and Rotifers from the pond water?..

@⁨Prashant Cube Sensing⁩ please give the summary and your plan of work for getting Moina from pond…


Interesting

We had found out the red point/zone of Moina culture…

There’s growth curve drawn on the whiteboard which says that the No. Of moina starts declining after 15 days and zero on 30th day…

Can we save moina culture on 15th day or 20th day?..
Can we make subcultures on the days in between 15 to 20 days.

@⁨Drishtant Cube Moina⁩ @⁨Saida Cube Rotifers⁩ @⁨Abhijith Vinod Cube Kolenchery Drosophila⁩ please add

We also had update from CUBE HOME LAB-KOLENCHERY.

Where Moinas were maintained using yeast powder.
That’s Moina culture was fed with pinch of yeast powder and that culture had last for 11 months.

That’s great…
@⁨Abhijith Vinod Cube Kolenchary Drosophila⁩ @⁨Drishtant Cube Moina⁩ please add and give picture of your home lab or model system…
