Tissue Culture and its Types

In biological research, tissue culture refers to a method in which fragments of a plant or animal tissue are introduced into a new, artificial environment, where they continue to function or grow.

While fragments of a tissue are often used, it is important to note that entire organs are also used for tissue culture purposes. Here, such growth media as broth and agar are used to facilitate the process.

While the term tissue culture may be used for both plant and animal tissues, plant tissue culture is the more specific term used for the culture of plant tissues in tissue culture.
