microbial banks

Microbial banks are specialized repositories that store various microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses, for research, medical, and industrial purposes. They preserve these microbes under controlled conditions to maintain their viability and genetic stability over time. These banks enable scientists and healthcare professionals to access essential microbial strains for developing treatments, vaccines, and studying diseases. Essentially, microbial banks act as a secure library of microorganisms, ensuring their availability for future scientific and medical advancements.
