PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Plant Preservation Mixture (PPMTM) is a robust, broad-spectrum biocide formulated for use in plant tissue culture. PPMTM targets bacteria and fungi in plant tissue culture growth media, as well as contaminated tissues. It affects the key enzymes of the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain. Depending on the dose and the level of contamination, PPM is a biocidal component in the plant growing medium. Furthermore, it can also function as a biostatic compound as a preventive measure. When diluted with plant culture media, it is effective as a microbicide (ie bactericide and fungicide) against non-human health pathogens, components of liquid or semi-solid plant culture media.

PPM is effective for most seedless plants (angiosperms and gymnosperms); however, it is not recommended for use on ferns, mosses, algae, and aquatic plants. Optimization may be required to maximize power. While PPM is an excellent tool in the prevention and elimination of culture contamination, it is not a substitute for aseptic laboratory techniques and adequate air handling systems are recommended.
