There is no effect on temperature inside stacked incubators due to low heat dissipation, so cell culturing can continue uninterrupted. There is no need to remove inner parts such as the CO2 sensor and UV light, or recalibrate after sterilisation, therefore, laboratory processes are more efficient with less incubator downtime. Preparation time: 10 -...
