1976

The TISTR Culture Collection or Bangkok MIRCEN is the

one of main service collection in Thailand. It was established in 1976

at Thailand Institute of Scientific and Technological Research

(TISTR) with funding support from the Royal Thai Government,

UNESCO and UNEP. The aim of establishing a holding center is for

agriculturally and industrially useful microbial strains. Since then,

the collection has been devoted to collection, preservation, and

distribution of microorganisms.

Our activities cover the aspects of culture collection work,

research relevant to the interest of the collection as well as applied

research in the fields of biotechnology, biofertilization, microbial

control, environmental pollution and utilization of agricultural

wastes and by-products. In its role as microbial resources centre, also provides technical training of personnel.

TISTR

The Quality Management System of MIRCEN has been conformed

to the requirements of the quality standards ISO 9001:2008.
