PCT Consultation Service

Tissue culture is an advanced and revolutionary technique. It allowed industrialists and scientists to create a variety of plants, conserve the plant species that are getting extinct, and produce disease-free plants. It provided a way to mass-produce plants and fulfill the market demands. All without compromising or damaging the present population of plants.

Using the technique is easy, however, the challenging part is creating a protocol for plants, even for expert culturists and scientists. Nevertheless, thousands of scientists are working on creating an efficient tissue culture protocol for plants high in demands or crops or endangered plants.
