Los colémbolos son microartrópodos cuyas poblaciones presentan altas densidades, y debido a sus hábitos alimenticios, tienen gran importancia como dispersores y controladores de poblaciones de hongos y bacterias, además aceleran procesos de descomposición de hojarasca y contribuyen a modificar el medio donde viven, permitiendo y/o acelerando la recuperación de suelos alterados. Sin embargo, son organismos difíciles de observar en su hábitat, por consiguiente, saber de su ecología, morfología, conducta o dinámica poblacional en condiciones naturales resulta complejo. Es por eso que se ha propuesto el uso de cultivos en condiciones de laboratorio, ya que permiten describir y conocer ciclos de vida, así como las condiciones ideales para el desarrollo y crecimiento de los organismos. En México, el uso de cultivos para el estudio de los colémbolos es poco común, debido a que no existe un estándar para su establecimiento y mantenimiento. En el presente trabajo se mencionan algunos de los principales factores a considerar antes y durante el mantenimiento de un cultivo, de tal forma que se asegure contar con un número adecuado de organismos para responder preguntas precisas, así como describir e identificar ciertas interacciones biológicas entre los colémbolos y otros organismos.
