Utility Vessel Athena: prepare your plants for tissue culture
The Utility Vessel is an ideal product for practicing Tissue Culture by Athena. This container made of polypropylene will help you to clean, disinfect and prepare your plants before starting tissue culture, as you can use it in an autoclave and fits perfectly into the Athena toolbox.
This Utility Vessel is used in step 2 of the Tissue Culture Media (plant preparation). It is important to have three of these vessels, as the nodes will be placed in one, while the others will be used to add different sterilizing solutions to the first one.
How to use Athena Utility Vessel
Once the work area has been completely sterilized and disinfected, the process of preparing the plants begins:
- Separate the selected nodes from the plants by removing the fan leaves.
- Place all nodes into a Utility Vessel and add 235 ml of osmosis water.
- Add 235 ml of water to two more Utility Vessels and place them in the autoclave for a complete cycle.
- Add 0.5 ml of Cleanse Athena to the vessel with the nodes and shake for 15 seconds.
- Slightly open the lid and pour the liquid into an extra container (keeping the nodes inside the container).
- Use another Utility Vessel to add 235 ml of osmosis water to the container with the nodes.
- Add 20 ml of bleach, shake, and leave for 10 minutes.
- Remove the liquid back into the extra container.
- Use the remaining Utility Vessel to add the last 235 ml of water to the container with the nodes, shake the mixture, and discard the water.
- Your nodes are now clean, disinfected, and ready to start tissue culture.
