CO2 incubators What are the different types that exist?

CO2 incubators are an advanced instrument where the development of cell cultures and tissues is carried out guaranteeing an environment with natural atmosphere, these incubators guarantee a temperature, humidity and CO2 content offering to the tests the maximum growth and safety, in KALSTEIN we have a CO2 incubator that meets the requirements of cultures of living organisms in vitro, one of the main applications of this type of incubators. 

The variety of applications of these incubators, the quality and efficiency of the experimental works justify the expense of acquiring a CO2 incubator; offer superior control of CO2 pressure and temperature of anaerobic jars and desiccators take longer to warm up; In KALSTEIN we offer two sizes of this equipment, considering that the size of the required incubator will depend on the intended use, both the number of people using it and the types of crops.

Types of CO2 Incubator

There are two great types to consider if you want to purchase a CO2 incubator for your laboratory, there are several aspects to consider, the boot time, the weight of the equipment, the size of the equipment, and the comfort when moving the equipment; however, for any questions or advice, we are here to answer your questions, we at KASLTEIN guarantee you to solve your doubts regarding this equipment, visit us HERE

However, in general terms you will find two teams: Direct Heat and Air Jacket, Water Jacket; both teams have differences as the first is easier to configure, reaches a programmed temperature in less time and is easier to move, the second takes longer to start, is heavier, and when you need to move site, you must drain the water; In KALSTEIN we offer two models with really exceptional features that will make your choice easier, as they cover expectations and effectively guarantee the work of experimentation.

Characteristics of KALSTEIN CO2 incubator

Applications of the CO2 incubator

  • It is used for cell, tissue and bacterial cultures.
  • It is the key team for essential immunology, oncology, genetics and bioengineering. 
  • Widely used in microorganisms, agricultural science, research and drug production.
  • It is an advanced instrument that is applied to bacterial cells, tissues and cultures.
  • Tissue engineering.
  • In vitro fertilization.
  • Cancer research.
  • Stem cell research.
  • Regenerative medicine.
  • Mammalian cell research.

General components of a CO2 incubator

Regardless of the size or model of incubator, this equipment is composed of the following devices, which allow correct operation:

  • Temperature control devices, with safety thermostat.
  • Injection device of a mixture of air and CO2, in the desired ratio, between 4 and 7 %, controlled by an IRGA device.
  • Device for controlling ambient humidity. The best way is to inject sterile and filtered water.
  • Air recirculation device with interleaved HEPA filters.
