ARTP(Atmospheric Room Temperature Plasma)

• World’s first room-temperature, atmospheric pressure plasma mutagenesis system developed
• A new technology that uses plasma to induce random mutations in microbes, animals, and plants.

Features

• High mutation rate → Build large libraries of gene mutations
• Effectively applied to cellular genetic material to cause structural damage to DNA
• Minimized oxygen generation by using 99.999% high purity helium → Ozone generation X
• Low initial and maintenance costs

Scope of application

• ARTP-A : Plants (pollen, seed, germ), animals (fertilized eggs, seedlings)
• ATTP-IIS : Bacteria, actinomycetes, mold, yeast, algae, fungi and so on
