Summary: | Seed Banks and agricultural farms benefit greatly from plant in
vitro Culture techniques, for their
rapid propagation processes and the production of desease-free plantlets. However, the production and
commercialization process can fail and it is not as successful
l as it was supposed to. The objective of this
study is to identify potential failure modes at the acclimatiztion stage of plantlets to ex vitro conditions at
Estación Territorial de Investigaciones de la Caña de Azúcar de
Villa Clara (ETICA). A methodology of Failure
Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) was applied. A value of 80 or
higher was determined to be the Risk Priority
Number (RPN) and the more relevant failure modes were defined a
t the acclimatization and commercialization
stages and ground rules and assumptions were established in order to prevent and control failure modes of the
process. The study and implementation of the methodology to other processes at ETICA is strongly
recommended. |
