Plant tissue culture initiation and subculture kit
Kit for demonstrating aseptic handling of explants, establishing cultures and subsequent subculturing.
The kit demonstrates sterile handling of explants, the initial introduction of plant material into culture and subsequent subculturing. Students learn the principles of asepsis in plant biotechnology and practise treating explants and instruments, placing explants on nutrient media and transferring cultures. These procedures provide basic experience in micropropagation.
