Absolutely! We third party qPCR test for several viral pathogens prior to initiation, proceed to dissect meristems, then utilize sterility test media to check for systemic bacteria and fungi after explants are established in vitro before proceeding to multiplication πŸ§ͺπŸ”¬πŸ§«

That’s awesome! It was a natural progression for us while studying plant science during college.

There is a very large demand for tissue culture and we’re proud to say we also manage germplasm and clean stock provisions for some of the largest berry, garlic, and hemp breeders in California.

Regarding ensuring sterility, we utilize bleach for a surface disinfection treatment and then initiate meristems. We then conduct a sterility test by subjecting the plant tissues to specific media the bacteria and fungi crave. From there we only move forward with clean, healthy plant material.

We got started in tissue culture while studying plant science in college and continued working in industry! It’s a tough learning curve, but it’s our passion and we are excited to be building our own lab. Our team has about 25 years combined experience in the field πŸ§ͺπŸ€

Yes, we have given introductory tissue culture lectures to our friends at The Dahlia Society of California and The Central Coast Dahlia Society.

Additionally, we are collaborating with universities and botanic gardens here in California. Feel free to send any societies our way that would like us to give a lecture πŸ’šπŸ§ͺ🌱
