"Ward's Science"
Ward's® Live Green Hydra (Chlorohydra viridissima)
Hydra are tiny animals closely related to jellyfish. They can be carnivorous as well as photosyntheic due to their symbiotic relationship with green algae Zoochlorellae.
Ward's® Live Brown Hydra (Hydra littoralis)
Hydra are tiny animals closely related to jellyfish. They are a carnivorous species that can be found in healthy freshwater rivers and streams where they attach themselves to plants and rocks.
Ward's® Live Brown Planaria (Dugesia dorotocephala)
This is the most widely studied Turbellarian, a free-living flatworm commonly used in science fair projects.
Ward's® Live Drosophila melanogaster - Chromosome II Mutants
Drosophila melanogaster, the common fruit fly, is widely used in genetic studies. They express a number of mutations such as eye, wing, and body mutations.
Ward's® Live Mealworm Larvae, Pupae and Beetles (Tenebrio)
Teach your students about the complete metamorphosis of an insect with these mealworms.
Ward's® Live Drosophila melanogaster - Chromosome I Mutants
Drosophila, the common fruit fly is widely used in genetic studies. Ward's offers a large number of mutations to help you demonstrate complex genetics concepts.
Ward's® Live Drosophila melanogaster - Chromosome III Mutants
Drosophila melanogaster, the common fruit fly, is widely used in genetic studies. They express a number of mutations such as eye, wing, and body mutations.
Ward's® Wild Type Fruit Fly (Drosophila melanogaster)
Drosophila melanogaster, the common fruit fly, is widely used in genetic studies because they express a number of mutations such as eye, wing, and body mutations.
Chromosome IV Mutants, Live Drosophila (Fruit Fly)
Drosophila melanogaster, the common fruit fly, is widely used in genetic studies. They express a number of mutations such as eye, wing, and body mutations.
Drosophila virilis
One of the largest Drosophila species. Useful for preparing salivary gland chromosome squashes.
Recommended by the Carnegie Institute
Mature Drosophila are cultured in our own labs, and are marked with the culture initiation date. Culture is shipped in our instant medium in a shatterproof vial. The Fruit Fly pupae will usually appear within ten days of the ship date. You will also receive WARD’S Drosophila Culture Guide. Note: We can supply any of our single strains in the larger quantity for 100 students. Call our Customer Service department for details.
Soil Nematodes
Examine the morphological characteristics of typical soil nematodes with the specimens in our well-populated culture.
Ward's® Live Drosophila melanogaster - Multichromosomal Mutants
Drosophila melanogaster, the common fruit fly, is widely used in genetic studies. They express a number of mutations such as eye, wing, and body mutations.
Drosophila mojavensis
Long life cycle (approximately one month). Useful for comparative population studies and for preparing salivary gland chromosome squashes.
Recommended by the Carnegie Institute
Mature Drosophila are cultured in our own labs, and are marked with the culture initiation date. Culture is shipped in our instant medium in a shatterproof vial. The pupae will usually appear within ten days of the ship date. You will also receive WARD’S Drosophila Culture Guide. Note: We can supply any of our single strains in the larger quantity for 100 students. Call our Customer Service department for details.
Ward's® Live Caenorhabditis elegans. culture
Ideal for use as a model system, this free-living nematode has biological processes similar to those of other animals. The transparent animal normally inhabits soil.
