Hi,
at the moment we are in the process of acquiring a new incubator for use in fish cell culture applications, which requires stable incubation at 20 - 25 °C in normal air atmosphere. As we had some problems with vibrations from conventional compressor-cooled incubators, we are considering the use of one of the newer peltier-cooled models.
Can you share your experience with such incubators, especially regarding reliability and durability?
Thank you!
Yes, possibly perfect choice for cell culture, temperature controlled conditions where you can control up to 0.1 celsius, However, in conventional incubators; jerking, temperature fluctuations up to 1 to 3 celsius which could be dangerous for cell culturing and incubation of cell lines. Go ahead for Peltier model incubator, although it is costly as compared to conventional. Memmert company incubators are the most reliable, you can get in touch with sales representative
Thanks. I was indeed thinking of one of the models from Memmert. I will post here when we had it working for some time.
