Collection of Plasmids and Microorganisms
Collection of Plasmids and Microorganisms (KPD) is a core facility specializing in a long-term storage of microbiological material samples, their identification, validation and characterization. The KPD collection includes bacteria (classified as P1 and P2), archaeons, and plasmids. The collection is a part of Microbial Resource Research Infrastructure (MIRRI) and it is registered with the Word Data Center for Microorganisms under the number WDCM 1084, which among other things means that depositing a microorganism in the KPD is honored by all scientific journals.
