How can I keep my flow cell chamber for growing biofilms at a constant 37 deg C?

12 June 2019 1 3K Report

I'm working on growing oral biofilms with plaque inoculum using a flow cell biofilm reactor. I'm using an FC 81 Flow cell. Given the current flow rate of my reactor system, the media reaches room temp (no matter how hot it starts to begin with) before it reaches the chamber.

Probably the best solution is a warm room?
