A new device for in-vitro plant culture using temporary immersion.

Pump
Solenoid Valve
Air Vent

• Plants are placed on a polyurethane foam disc.
• Overpressure of sterile air is applied in the lower container which pushes the liquid medium into the upper container holding the plants.
• A sterile air flow continuously agitates and oxygenates the medium and renews the air inside the vessel.
• When the air flow is stopped, the pressure in the two parts of the container adjusts and the liquid medium returns to the bottom of the vessel by gravity. The plants remain covered by a film of medium by capillary attraction.
  
  • Easy to use.
  • Autoclavable parts.
  • No risk of spread of contamination.
  • Medium can be renewed without giving any harm to plant.
