Cultivo CO2 Incubator
12Pages

Your work. Your cultures. Your way. How do you define optimal? You use CO2 incubators to provide optimal atmospheric conditions to protect, grow and maintain cell and tissue cultures. But how do you define optimal? Optimal is never a one-size-fits-all condition. It’s contextual. It’s driven by the research or the cell line. But – more importantly – it should be driven by you. Providing optimal conditions means you control the parameters of the particular environment in which your specific cells will thrive, or be challenged. You define the variables, not the incubator.

with your incubator With full, finely-tuned control over three variables (C02, temperature and relative humidity), you can create more lifelike conditions for your cultures to thrive, and improve the validity of your results. Accurate, precise and stable environmental conditions make your results more reliable. Find out how cells respond in challenging conditions. Work with sensitive cell lines. With Cultivo™, you can provide the unique conditions required to explore more research questions than ever before. Whether growing a few plates of microorganisms for a small laboratory or managing a...

Protect Cultures from Contamination Baker Clean Air Technology With more than 60 years of innovation in contamination control technology, at Baker, we know how to prevent and control contamination. The design of Cultivo™ draws on this extensive experience to protect cultures against the threat of accidental contamination from a wide variety of sources due to everyday activities. Vertical, uni-directional downward airflow delivers better-than ISO Class 4 (Class 10) air to the chamber, keeping cultures safe from contaminants by sweeping them away and trapping them in the full-face HEPA...

Unmatched Control and Accuracy Cultivo™ provides users with precise control, as well as industry-leading stability, uniformity and recovery rates. Even with a full load, cultures grow consistently from shelf to shelf, for dependably high-quality, robust cells on every plate. InteliCELL™ proprietary PID control algorithm provides pinpoint, user-defined control over all three parameters (temperature, CO2 and relative humidity), with recovery not seen in other CO2 incubators. Uniform vertical downflow air circulation enhances the uniformity and stability of conditions inside the chamber...

Active Humidity and Condensation Control No gimmicks. Most CO2 incubators only allow users to control two variables (temperature and CO2) and employ clever gimmicks for passively managing condensation formation. True active humidity and condensation control gives users the ability to define relative humidity in a simple, two-touch process. At Baker, we know that temperature, CO2 and relative humidity (RH) are each vital to providing optimal environmental conditions for cell growth. Our unique PID control algorithm, InteliCELL™, combined with highly precise sensor technology, allows Cultivo...

Simple Operation with Customizable Control All operations are accessible through an intuitive, user-friendly touchscreen interface that gives you full control over incubator functionality. Pressure-sensitive touchscreen works with gloved hands. Real-time status updates and alarm conditions on the home screen. One-touch access to set point screens. Customizable alarms and security settings. Graphic data log displays for at-a-glance monitoring. USB download of data and event logs. Helps assist in providing compliance with 21 CFR Part 11 electronic record-keeping requirements. 2. Low water...

Improved Productivity and User Experience Cultivo™ has been designed around your needs, to help solve common problems and improve productivity in your laboratory. Outstanding condensation control. Cultivo is the only incubator available that provides a virtually condensation-free interior at relative humidity levels above 90%. No more time spent mopping up after dripping doors. Personnel are protected from exposure to potentially dangerous contaminants during cleanup, as well as accidental slips. Largest usable workspace – leave the “sweet spot” behind! Cultivo offers one of the largest...

Control & Kill Microbial Contaminants with UV and Hydrogen Peroxide Cultivo™ offers two optional protocols designed to reduce the spread of potential contaminants and to kill a wide variety of contaminating microorganisms. Customizable ultraviolet light water pan biodecontamination cycle offers more effective decontamination of microbes that may grow in the water pan (base model) or internal water reservoir (Ultra and Ultra Plus models). A customizable timer allows you to follow your institution’s protocols. Vaporized hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) biodecontamination (Ultra Plus model) kills a...
