## What is ExplantFlow?

ExplantFlow is the all-in-one laboratory management tool designed specifically for plant tissue culture scientists, hobbyists, and lab technicians. Whether you're propagating orchids in your kitchen or managing hundreds of cultures in a commercial facility, ExplantFlow replaces your spreadsheets, paper logs, and mental math with a single, powerful app.

FORMULATE CUSTOM MEDIA
Design tissue culture media recipes with precision. Choose from built-in basal salt formulations including Murashige & Skoog (MS), Woody Plant Medium (WPM), and Knudson C. Fine-tune phytohormone concentrations for auxins (NAA, IBA, IAA, 2,4-D), cytokinins (BAP, Kinetin, Zeatin, TDZ, 2-iP, meta-Topolin), and gibberellins (GA3). Toggle between mg/L and micromolar units instantly. Add carbon sources, gelling agents, vitamins, antibiotics, and custom additives — then let ExplantFlow calculate exact weights, molar concentrations, and stock solution volumes for any target volume.

SAVE & REUSE RECIPES
Save your perfected formulations to a searchable recipe library. Load any recipe as a template to quickly iterate on concentrations. Export recipes as formatted PDFs or CSV files to share with collaborators or archive for your records.

TRACK CULTURES & BATCH EVENTS
Create and manage cultures with unique batch identifiers. Log observations, stage transitions, contamination events, and media changes over time. Track node counts, genetic stability, and health status as your cultures progress through Initiation, Multiplication, Rooting, and Acclimatization stages.

VISUALIZE LINEAGE TREES
See the full propagation history of any genetic line at a glance. ExplantFlow automatically builds interactive lineage trees that show parent-child relationships across generations. Pinch to zoom, tap to inspect, and export the entire tree as a high-resolution image for publications or lab reports.

MANAGE INVENTORY
Keep a centralized inventory of your custom salts, vitamins, phytohormones, and additives — complete with molecular weights and categories. Add new reagents directly from the formulation bench and they immediately become available across all your recipes.

PERSONALIZE YOUR LAB
Add your lab name, upload a custom logo, and see your branding reflected across the dashboard, PDF exports, and lineage tree headers.

BUILT FOR SCIENTISTS
• Precise molar calculations with automatic unit conversions
• Support for custom phytohormones and additives with molecular weights
• PDF and CSV export for recipes, batch logs, and lineage trees
• iCloud sync to keep your data consistent across all your Apple devices
• Clean, distraction-free interface designed for use at the bench
