RITA®, temporary immersion system

A temporary immersion system for in vitro plant culture that ensures improved yields compared with culture on a gel medium.

The RITA® system is now being used successfully for coffee microcuttings, coffee, rubber and banana somatic embryogenesis and potato microtuberization.

Features

  • Simple plant and medium handling.
  • Improved nutrition: the plant is in close contact with the medium during immersion, and is covered by a capillary film throughout the remaining period.
  • Marked reduction in asphyxiation.
  • Complete renewal of the culture atmosphere on each immersion.
  • Control of morphological processes by modifying immersion frequency and duration.

Services

Advice on industrial-type installations.
