    • Over 3000 strains of algae, protozoa, cyanobacteria & small seaweeds
       
      CCAP is Europe's largest and most diverse service collection for living strains from marine, freshwater and terrestrial environments, and a growing collection of polar diatoms.

      Our searchable database and store contains data on each strain, including origin, maintenance information, references and sequencing data. We also supply culture media.

      We securely cryopreserve or maintain commercially valuable strains; we are an International Depositary Authority for strains that are part of a Patent application.
