Welcome to the Botryococcus Culture Collection.
BCC is a specific culture collection that maintains only coccoid green algae of the genus Botryococcus. The collection is actively involved in the isolation and identification of new strains. Therefore, the collection contains a number of species and subspecies in axenic cultures that were isolated from various natural habitats and may not available through other culture collections yet. In the future, strains of Botryococcus that are maintained will be available from this collection. BCC was founded in 2006 and is managed by Dr. Jürgen E.W. Polle.
