Evaluation of methanol preservation for molecular and morphological studies in cyanobacteria using Planktothrix agardhii

Molecular studies on cyanobacteria often involve filtering and freezing of samples leading to loss of cell morphological features. Methanol is often used in preservation of biological materials in association with other fixatives. This study evaluates the application of methanol in the preservation...
