What is the meaning of sterilisation? Why is it essential in tissue culture?

Answer»

Sterilisation refers to the complete killing of microorganisms so that a normal, pathogen free condition is created. Sterilisation is essential in tissue culture because it requires regeneration of plant from explants, in a test tube, under sterile conditions. So, sterilisation is prerequisite as growth of unwanted microorganisms would contaminate the nutrient media and further procedure would be difficult to carry out.
