This lab has been established at ISF in the department of Pharmacognosy with a view to develop plant cell lines for the production of secondary metabolites. In Plant Tissue Culture technique small portion of the plant tissue, known as meristmatic tissue used for the production of biomass. In this lab all growth requirements of the plant tissue like humidity, light, temp, nutrition of requirement etc are supplied artificially. Which enhances the production of biomass as well as secondary metabolites. Plant Tissue Culture Lab comprises of three different sections; Preparation area, Aseptic area and Incubation area. The lab is well equipped with modern equipments of international standard viz. CO2 incubator (NBS, USA), vertical laminar air flow, BOD incubator, Autoclave, refrigerated centrifuge (Remi, India), digital pH meter, electronic balance, Hot air oven etc.
