Wet-Lab Plant Tissue Culture Workshop - Micropropagation Kit Included!

Welcome to the Plant Tissue Culture Micropropagation Workshop! Join us at Counter Culture Labs (4799 Shattuck Ave., Oakland, CA 94609) for hands-on experience in plant micropropagation. In this class, you’ll learn about the four stages of micropropagation (sterile technique and aseptic culture, multiplication, in vitro rooting, and acclimatization) and begin a culture for your own Satin Pothos houseplant.

You’ll also learn how to source and replicate tissue culture protocols in the case that you’d like to pursue plant micropropagation as a hobby. Your take-home kit includes a rooted pothos transplant and two tissue culture plants created during the workshop!

The workshop fee is $250. This covers instruction, the materials used in class, as well as your take-home kit!

Required lab attire for safety: Long pants and closed-toed shoes.

Unable to attend? Interested in other classes like plant genetic engineering, microbial engineering, and bioluminescent dinoflagellates? Join our mailing list to hear about upcoming workshops!
