TM4 Basal Salts Product ID: T8024
Introduction
Description:
Contains the Macro- and Micronutrients as described by Shahin E. in 1984.
Originally developed for work with Tomato protoplasts.
Glucose can also be added to this formulation, in which is it referred to as TM4G Basal Salt.
This product replaces product T853.

Preparation of concentrated solutions is not recommended as insoluble precipitates may form. |
Other Notes: |
Contains the micro- and macronutrients as described by Shahin (1984) in his research with tomato protoplasts. He notes the concentration of potassium iodide used in his work as 0.38g/L. This amount is presumed to be a typo due to cross reference of this medium formulation with his patent (#4634674) also describing this medium, but with 0.83 g/L KI. Formulation does not include the vitamins, sucrose, agar, MES or plant growth regulators as Shahin’s 1984 formulation describes |
