Plantima A-tech Toronado

Company Description

The Plantima® Bioreactor is a plant tissue culture container designed for the temporary immersion system (TIS) in the PlanTower®. The main feature of the Plantima® bioreactor is the design of separate compartments for holding liquid medium and for plant growth. By automatic adjustment of air pressure, the liquid medium is delivered to the growth compartment to achieve temporary immersion and then returns to the liquid holding compartment. The advantages of Plantima include: Periodic medium immersion: Temporary immersion of propagules in the growth compartment achieved by the forced inlet of ambient air will provide uniform supply of nutrients. This can prevent vitrification and poor aeration around roots.. Gaseous exchange: Different from the suffocative closed system, the gas exchangeable Plantima culture system can improve the autotrophic development of plants and shorten the period of acclimatization needed in traditional culture systems. Growth adjustable: Through the control of the interval and duration of immersion, the production stage can be programmed as desired. Culture synchronization: The diffusion of nutrients in Plantima promotes uniform growth of propagules and hence more profitable. Plants propagated in the Plantima system will grow faster, be higher in yield, better in quality and reduce production cost. The Plantima system was originally developed by A-Tech. Plantima and PlanTower are registered trademarks of A-Tech.
