Create your own formulations

Depending on your chosen protocol, you can combine MS Medium + Vitamins with additional components such as:

Carbohydrates
For example, sucrose.

Gelling agents
For preparing solid or semi-solid media.

Plant Growth Regulators
Such as cytokinins or auxins, depending on your chosen formulation and intended application.

This allows you to create customised media for different plant species and stages of tissue culture.
