MATERIAL FUNDAMENTALS OF CELL BIOTECHNOLOGY

Cell culture and tissue. Cellular biotechnology is based on the use of cells, tissues and protoplasts. In order to manipulate cells (introduce some changes in their activity), it is necessary to isolate them from the plant and create conditions for them to live and multiply outside the plant organism. Cultivation of isolated cells and tissues in an artificial nutrient medium, under sterile conditions (in vitro), the method was called isolated tissue culture, and because they can be used in biotechnology, it gained great importance.
