Plant Laboratory and Nursery Design and System Setup Services



In agriculture and botany, producing high-quality and efficient plantlets is crucial. Plant laboratory and nursery design and system setup services play a vital role in creating suitable environments for plant tissue culture and plantlet acclimatization. These services cover everything from laboratory layout and equipment selection to system installation, ensuring smooth and standardized plantlet production.


A plant tissue culture laboratory requires strict environmental control to prevent microbial contamination and create optimal growing conditions. A well-designed laboratory considers appropriate zoning, such as a plant media preparation room, a cutting (or transfer) room, and a rooting room. Each room must have appropriate temperature, humidity, and light control, along with air filtration to maintain cleanliness. Especially in the cutting room, which is most susceptible to contamination, the addition of an ozone sterilization system is crucial.


A plant nursery is a space for acclimatizing plantlets produced from tissue culture before they are planted in a real-world environment. Nursery design also considers environmental control but focuses on adapting plantlets to external conditions, such as controlling sunlight, temperature, humidity, and ventilation. It also considers watering, fertilization, and pest control systems.


A good plant laboratory and nursery design and system setup service should include the following


  • Needs Analysis: Understanding customer needs, such as plant species, desired plantlet quantity, and budget.

  • Layout Design: Designing the laboratory and nursery layout to suit the intended use and available space, considering workflow and safety.

  • Equipment Procurement: Procuring necessary equipment and tools, such as laminar flow hoods, incubators, autoclaves, environmental control systems, and various culture equipment, including ozone generators for the cutting room.

  • System Installation: Installing various systems, such as electrical, water, ventilation, environmental control systems, and the ozone system for the cutting room.

  • Consultation: Providing consultation on laboratory and nursery operation and maintenance, including the correct and safe use of the ozone system.


These services cover the design and layout of plant tissue culture laboratories and nurseries, including the procurement of essential equipment and tools, to ensure efficient and standardized plantlet production, considering the following factors


  • Work Efficiency: Designing for smooth workflow, reducing complex steps, and increasing productivity.

  • Safety: Designing for the safety of both personnel and plants, including the safe use of the ozone system.

  • Sustainability: Choosing energy-efficient and environmentally friendly materials and equipment.

  • Cost-Effectiveness: Designing for value for investment and suitability to the customer's budget.


Choosing a quality and comprehensive plant laboratory and nursery design and system setup service will ensure efficient, standardized, and successful plantlet production. If you are interested in our services, please contact us for more details. We are happy to serve you.


Further Explanation of Laboratory Rooms


  • Plant Media Preparation Room: This area is for preparing tissue culture media, including weighing, measuring, mixing chemicals, adjusting pH, and sterilizing media. Essential equipment in this room includes balances, hot plates, autoclaves, pH meters, and various glassware. This area should be separated from other areas to prevent fungal and bacterial contamination.

  • Cutting Room (or Transfer Room): This area is for culturing plant parts on culture media under sterile conditions. The essential equipment is a laminar flow hood, which has a HEPA filter to prevent contamination, and an ozone system for sterilizing the air and surfaces after each operation. This room must be kept exceptionally clean, with strict access control. Using an ozone system effectively reduces contamination, but it must be used carefully and according to the manufacturer's instructions for the safety of personnel and plants.

  • Rooting Room: This area is for culturing plant tissue after transfer onto culture media to await root development. The environment, such as temperature, light, and humidity, is controlled appropriately. Shelving with grow lights and controlled temperature and relative humidity is often used.


Clear zoning and proper equipment placement in each room ensure efficient laboratory operation and reduce the risk of contamination. Separating the plant media preparation room from the cutting room further reduces the risk of cross-contamination. Adding an ozone system to the cutting room is another crucial measure for effective contamination control and reduction.
