ABOUT OUT TISSUE CULTURE SERVICES
Tissue Culture Solutions from Initiation to Plant-Ready
We can work from explants or existing in-vitro cultures, with a complete process including initiation, multiplication, rooting and optional acclimatisation and hardening.
OUR TISSUE CULTURE CAPABILITIES
Culture Initiation
Establishing clean, viable cultures from selected parent material in a sterile environment to ensure a disease-free start.
Multiplication
Rapidly multiplying the initiated cultures using precise nutrient formulas to scale up plant volume efficiently.
Rooting
Inducing robust root development in the multiplied shoots, preparing the plantlets for a successful transition to soil.
Acclimatisation
Hardening off the rooted plants in controlled greenhouse environments to ensure high survival rates in the field.
