Plant tissue culture lab and center design
A tissue culture plant production center encompasses laboratory, acclimatization, and plant-growing facilities.
The lab design is a key step to set up a plant production center by tissue culture. Initial design problems can lead to contamination problems that may even affect the feasibility of the facility. When this happens, those problems can most likely be found out when the lab is already running in full production, which can generate big losses. Also, it is very important to get the most optimized workflow, that results in lower labor costs and contamination risks.
In the same way, the most harmful losses in a production center occur during the acclimatization process because the production cost of the lost plants there is higher than in the laboratory. The right design of this facility, in conjunction with the reduction of contamination losses in the laboratory, is paying for itself on an ongoing basis while producing plants.
Sybiotec offers the following services in order to build and set in operation a plant tissue culture production center:
-
A comprehensive draft project including layouts of the two labs and describing all relevant information necessary for the correct building of each one of the production facilities.
-
Assistance in the selection of the most accurate providers/builders.
-
Supervision of the construction.
-
The supply of a comprehensive list of the required equipment and materials, including their specs to meet and suggestions of the most suitable suppliers.
-
Assistance in the selection of key personnel for the production center.
-
Staff training at the production center.
-
Start-up of the production center.
-
Implementation in the center of the transferred technologies up to achieve a commercial level efficiency as well as any available updates that may represent an improvement for such processes.
-
Development of the production schedule to achieve the desired production targets.
-
Implementation of a system to record and maintain all relevant records relevant to production control that allows us to know if we are on track regarding the established production schedule and define possible corrections of the production schedule when necessary.
