Dear all,
I'm looking for an alternative for a CO2 incubator with O2 regulation as these are quite expensive and I actually just need 5% O2, 5% CO2, 37°C over 3 days every 2 weeks (should fit for 6 or 12 well plates)
I came across the hypoxia incubator chamber from Stemcell which sounds quite interesting. Does anyone has experience with this chamber or has any other ideas how to avoid buying an incubator ?
Please explore the use of mass-flow controllers and monitors for small chambers
Yes, there are alternatives for a CO2 incubator with O2 regulation, such as hypoxic incubators, anaerobic incubators, and nitrogen purge incubators. Hypoxic incubators are designed to maintain a low O2 environment and are best suited for culturing anaerobic organisms. Anaerobic incubators are designed to maintain an oxygen-free environment, and nitrogen purge incubators use a nitrogen atmosphere to eliminate the need for CO2 regulation.
