Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document introduces the CytoCentric Products, focusing on the I-Glove system, which optimizes O2 and CO2 conditions for cell incubation and processing. It addresses the limitations of traditional incubators and hoods by providing a controlled environment that minimizes exposure to ambient air.

Full-Time Optimization and Protection
The I-Glove system ensures full-time optimization of atmospheric conditions, preventing disturbances when the incubator door is opened. It reduces gas consumption and eliminates the need for a hood by maintaining optimal conditions both inside and outside the incubator.

Features of the I-Glove
  • Full-time O2/CO2 optimization and protection.
  • Consistent data and quick recovery of O2/CO2 levels.
  • Maximum user comfort with ample workspace.
  • Accommodates subchambers without disturbance when the incubator is opened.

Installation and Operation
The installation involves setting the I-Glove on a secure surface, placing the incubator inside, and connecting the necessary gas supplies and controllers. The system allows for aseptic handling of cells without disturbing optimal conditions, eliminating the need for a BSL2 hood.

Performance and Protection
The I-Glove accommodates standard incubators and provides a protective barrier against contamination and harmful agents. It ensures uninterrupted optimal conditions for cell processing, protecting researchers from exposure to viruses and other infectious agents.

Options and System Parts
The system offers configurations for single or dual users, with options for O2 and CO2 control in different chambers. It includes controllers for oxygen and CO2, and requires a nitrogen gas supply for hypoxia. Subchambers are available for transporting cells, providing isolated environments within the incubator.

Dimensions
The document provides detailed dimensions for the I-Glove and its components, ensuring compatibility with existing lab setups.

I-GLOVE-1

Incubator Glove Box CytoCentric Products • Full Time O2/CO2 Optimization • Full Time Protection • More Consistent Data • Quick O2/CO2 Recovery • Maximum User Comfort • Ample Workspace • Accommodates Subchambers • No Disturbance When Incubator Is Opened Cells are brought into the I-Glove via subchambers. The buffer chamber matches the workspace setpoint, then cells are accessed from the interior door. O2 and CO2 (optional) Optimized Incubation and Processing CYTOCENTRIC ALTERNATIVE TO HOODS The incubator is an essential part of the cell culturing process. The only drawback is the exposure to ambient air. Processing cells contained solely in an incubator is widely accepted, though it creates numerous complications. FULL TIME OPTIMIZATION Primarily, the optimal atmospheric environment inside the incubator is disturbed whenever the door is opened. Secondly, a large amount of gas is required to restore the contained atmosphere to optimal conditions (especially hypoxia). Lastly, cultures are usually manipulated in a hood outside the incubator under suboptimal conditions. FULL TIME PROTECTION The I-Glove is a valuable, affordable solution to these problems. It is a large glove box in which your incubator sits. Identical conditions can be controlled both inside and outside the incubator allowing cultures to be manipulated under optimal conditions. This process removes the necessity of a hood and consumes minimal gas. This means the control range of the incubator is also easily controlled. Inside the I-Glove, extreme oxygen levels are easily main

I-GLOVE-2

Installation Schematic Pictured with optional Continuous Recirculating Atmosphere Conditioner (CRAC) P120 The I-Glove provides a workspace equivalent to the size of a standard small hood. The technician works with gloves that are seam-welded into a clear plastic window to maximize visibility, and ambient room lighting. The flexibility of the window allows maximum mobility and comfort. Atmospheric conditions inside the I-Glove can be controlled to optimize O2/CO2 conditions outside the incubator. The I-Glove is separated from outside air by a buffer chamber. Aseptic conditions, as well as isolation...

I-GLOVE-3

Cells removed from normal incubator and handled in normal hood are exposed to suboptimal conditions. Cells removed and handled from incubator in I-Glove are never exposed to suboptimal conditions. I-GLOVES PROTECT THE RESEARCHERS Cells are often purposely grown and processed to generate or test viruses and vectors. More worrisome is when cells are unknowingly infected with viruses or other transmissible agents. C-Chambers will limit exposure to harmful viruses, vectors and prions where conventional open labs allow the technicians to breathe potentially dangerous non-cellular biological entities. UNINTERRUPTIBILITY When...

Complete System Parts • Right hinge or left hinge configurations • Single or Dual user COMPLETE SYSTEM - A nitrogen gas supply is necessary for hypoxia. If CO2 control is necessary, a tank of CO2 is also required, as is a CO2 controller to control it. (Incubator not included). Two user configuration is best located on an island or a peninsula counter top to achieve access on three sides. • O2 and/or CO2 control in buffer chamber only • O2 and/or CO2 control in glove chamber in addition to buffer chamber • Continuous recirculating atmosphere conditioner Dimensions CONTROLLERS - Oxygen controllers,...
