Incubators for Biology and Microbiology Labs
Incubators are indispensable in biology and microbiology labs as they are necessary for applications such as biochemical and hematological studies, cell and tissue culture, pharmaceutical work, microorganism cultivation, e.coli, clinical and cosmetic testing, genetic engineering, and more.Maintaining optimal temperature, humidity and other conditions such as the carbon dioxide and oxygen content of the atmosphere inside,this piece of laboratory equipment is widely used in experimental work and to culture both bacterial and other types of cells.There are different models of this laboratory equipment and you have to choose the one that best suits your requirements.
Different Types of Incubators
The incubators come in diverse types and capacities.There are both digital and analog models which in turn may come as bench top or floor-standing equipment with one, two or three shelves and solid or see-through-doors.There are shaking incubators designed for both mixing and/or incubating.Incubator sterilizers perform the functions of standard incubators and also sterilize.
Most established lab equipment stores offer incubators in varying designs and capacities, starting from a minimum of 0.5 cf.While analog incubators feature a hydraulic thermostat for temperature control, a dial thermometer for temperature display and a switch for operation, digital incubators come with a PID controller and digital temperature input and readout, safety thermostat, red warning indicator light, and in-built timer.Quality models have an easy to clean interior, and stain and scratch resistant powder-coated exterior.
