This Plant Tissue Culture Training hub brings together 100 carefully structured categories covering lab setup, asepsis, media optimisation, core regeneration techniques, specialised systems and more than 60 crop-specific pipelines. Learners can explore end-to-end workflows for fruits, vegetables, ornamentals, medicinal plants, forestry and bioenergy crops, along with modules on hardening, nursery management, facility planning and commercial scale-up. Use the index below to jump into detailed category cards with modules, eligibility, delivery modes, enrollment policies and sector-wise applications.
This category helps you choose the right location and basic infrastructure blueprint for a plant tissue culture facility. You learn how to evaluate climate, utilities, logistics, contamination risks and regulatory constraints before committing to a site, and how to plan the footprint so it can expand from pilot to commercial scales. Emphasis is on practical checklists, risk assessment and integration of the PTC lab with nurseries and hardening units on the same campus.
This category focuses on designing contamination-aware zones and functional layouts for plant tissue culture facilities. Trainees learn how to separate dirty, grey and clean areas, how to position media, inoculation and culture rooms for unidirectional flow, and how to integrate change rooms, gowning and support spaces. The emphasis is on practical, buildable layouts that reduce cross-traffic and support high-throughput, low-contamination operations.
This category covers the backbone services that keep a plant tissue culture facility running reliably: electrical power and backup, process and potable water, RO/DI systems, HVAC and air handling units, pressure differentials and environmental monitoring. The focus is on how to size, place and connect utilities so that culture rooms see stable temperature, humidity, airflow and power — even in challenging field conditions — with clear SOPs for failures and cost-conscious operation.
This category translates layout drawings into practical equipment positioning for plant tissue culture labs. Participants learn how to place laminar flow cabinets, autoclaves, incubators, culture racks and storage units so that workflows remain unidirectional, ergonomic and safe. Focus is on minimising contamination risk, avoiding heat and vibration conflicts, providing safe electrical access, and ensuring that operators can work efficiently in production-style PTC environments.
This category converts theory of media and glassware handling into real layouts. Trainees learn how to design media preparation and wash areas for quick turnaround, safe chemical storage, smooth drainage and minimal rework. Emphasis is on practical bench arrangements, segregation of clean/dirty activities and 5S-style organisation that supports high-throughput PTC pipelines.
This category teaches how people, media, explants and consumables should move through a PTC facility to keep contamination low and productivity high. Trainees learn to map flows from receiving to waste exit, identify cross-overs and dead zones, and redesign routes using simple diagramming tools. Emergency routes and visitor/audit paths are also covered.
This category turns layout and flow diagrams into concrete, written SOPs governing how people, materials and waste move through a PTC facility. Participants learn to write clear, auditable procedures for entry, gowning, sterile transfers, waste handling and incident recording, along with systems for training and tracking staff competence.
This category builds a disciplined maintenance and calibration backbone for PTC labs. It covers asset listing, preventive maintenance scheduling, routine calibration and qualification of key equipment, autoclave validation and the basics of logbooks, CMMS and vendor management so that culture rooms stay stable and failures are predictable, not random.
