Abstract

Oscillatoria species is a Cyanobacteria that is important because it can conduct photosynthetic
activities. it has a long un branching filamentous morphology and is green colour due to the
chlorophyll content which is the unique features that set it apart from other. In this investigation
it was cultured on BG-11 media and influences the growth after 1st week, parameters recorded
i.e., fresh weight (2.04g) and dry weight (0.08 g) at room temperature. On 4th week fresh weight
(at room temperature) recorded (1.18 g) and dry weight (0.1g). Culturing of Cyanobactria,
Oscillatoria species is the part of biotechnolgy but they play a very important role in all the field
of environmental science and biology.
