Tissue Culture Equipment

Tissue culture is a vital application in the life sciences laboratory. Tissue culture refers in a layman's term to the the development of cells or tissues that is separated from the organism. If we say only “ tissue culture it would generally mean culturing of the animal tissues and cell. For plants there is a more specific term and that is called plant tissue culture. However mostly tissue culture or cell culture is used interchangeably for defining the in vitro culturing of mammalian cells. Tissue culture is often done in a media that can be solid, liquid, semi-solid. Mostly tissue culture is done in the designated tissue culture laboratories where there are laminar flow work surfaces available. Typically cultures are grown in a controlled environment room. Most of the laboratories where tissue culture takes place has full fledged laminar-flow sterile hoods along with cell incubators.
