How To Activate Physarum Polycephalum

Physarum Polycephalum is an easy and fascinating life form to grow. Enjoy the exciting experience of reactivating this organism on a petri dish or in an active vivarium. The sample can be reactivated easily by dipping it in water and setting it in a humid environment or on plain agar petri dish. 

Physarum Polycephalum Scientific Summary

Acellular slime molds or myxomycetes popularly known as "Blobs". A protist with diverse cellular forms and broad geographic distribution. The “acellular” moniker derives from the plasmodial stage of the life cycle: the plasmodium is a macroscopic multinucleate coenocyte shaped in a network of interlaced tubes. This stage of the life cycle, along with its preference for damp shady habitats, likely contributed to the original mischaracterization of the organism as a fungus.
