FAQ:
How to Calibrate a CO₂ Incubator?
Calibration involves temperature and CO₂ concentration. For temperature: place a high-precision thermometer (±0.1°C) inside, let it stabilize, compare readings, and adjust the setpoint if needed (tolerance: ±0.2°C). For CO₂: connect a calibrated CO₂ analyzer to the sampling port, compare its reading to the display, and adjust (tolerance: ±0.1% CO₂). Always let the incubator stabilize for 30 min before calibration. Refer to the manufacturer’s manual for specific procedures.
How to Clean a CO₂ Incubator?
First, turn off power and CO₂ supply, and remove all cultures, shelves, and water pan. Wipe all interior surfaces, door gasket, and shelves with 70% ethanol or mild soap solution. Rinse with sterile distilled water to remove residue. Clean the water pan weekly — empty, wipe with 70% ethanol, and refill with sterile distilled water. For deep decontamination, use a high-temperature sterilization cycle (if available) or wipe with 3‰ benzalkonium chloride, then rinse thoroughly.
What Are CO₂ Incubators Used For?
CO₂ incubators are primarily used for cell and tissue culture in biomedical research. They maintain a controlled environment at 37°C, 5% CO₂, and ~95% humidity, creating optimal pH (7.2–7.4) for mammalian cell growth. Common applications include cancer research, IVF, stem cell engineering, vaccine production, drug screening, and hybridoma antibody production. They are essential in hospitals, university labs, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology industries.
