Description
ADaM is short for "Aachener Daphnien-Medium" and is a easy to prepare, well-established medium for a variety of Daphnia and other limnic zooplankton species species. The following recipe is based on the original publication by Klüttgen et al.[1], with a modified selenium content first mentioned in Ebert et al.[2].
Recipe
To prepare ADaM, a high quality sea salt for scientific purposes is needed. Specifically, two sea salts have been frequently used in laboratories all over the world to prepare ADaM:
- Crystal Sea® Bioassay Laboratory Formula (Marine Enterprises International; Baltimore, MD, USA)
- hw-Marinemix® professional (Wiegandt; Krefeld, Germany)
