Laboratory Incubators Search Tool

Laboratory incubators provide a temperature-controlled environment for the optimal growth and maintenance of biological samples, such as mammalian cells, tissues, plants, and microbiological cultures. In addition to culturing, they are also used in general heating and incubation applications, including nucleic acid hybridizations, staining, and biochemical assays. Incubators are diverse and can vary in attributes such as build, temperature, and gas circulation, among other features. Incubator shakers include a built-in shaking or rocking mechanism. CO2 incubators, often used in cell and tissue culture, allow careful control of CO2 levels. Hypoxia incubators and chambers can lower oxygen levels below that of the ambient atmosphere. Refrigerated incubators have the added capability of lowering the temperature below ambient. Dry bath incubators and heaters use metal blocks to quickly heat up tubes and plates. Use the provided filters to help in your search for the most suitable incubator for your biological research needs.
