Preceptrol^® Cultures: ATCC^® quality at a great value

ATCC's Preceptrol cultures offer an economical way for your lab to use well-characterized ATCC strains. Hundreds of our bacteria, yeast, and filamentous fungi strains are available in this format. Most are packaged in serum vials for ease of use.

There are two ways to search the online catalog for Preceptrol^® strains. In the basic word search, enter the word Preceptrol^® into the query window along with your search (genus, species, catalog number, etc.). All the resulting records will be Preceptrol^® strains, and you can check to see if any of them meet your needs. Or you can use the advanced field search within the bacteria or fungi/yeast collection. Enter the genus and/or species in the organism field and click 'yes' to Preceptrol^®.

Remember that with Preceptrol^® strains you get the same standards of quality as our traditional cultures. Each one is thoroughly tested and characterized, so you know exactly what you are getting. Our stock system ensures that every vial is as close as possible to the original culture, even after decades of storage, to minimize genetic drift and selection of mutants.

Put quality and value to work in your lab with Preceptrol^® cultures from ATCC.
