CO2 incubator MD 151 UV, Medline
The incubator maintains an optimal temperature, humidity, pH and other conditions, such as the carbon dioxide and oxygen content necessary for cell growth and division. For the mammalian cells cultivation, relative humidity is typically >95%, temperature 37°C and CO2 level is most often 5%. Incubator is essential for a lot of experimental work in cell and molecular biology, as well as microbiology because it is used to culture both bacterial and eukaryotic cells.
