Iranian Knowledge-Based Firm Makes CO2 Incubator
“Among our key and strategic products is the CO2 incubator for cell culture. This device is considered as a vital tool in production of recombinant drugs, anti-cancer drugs and strategic and widely used vaccines,” said Mohammad Hassan Bastami, the managing director of the knowledge-based company.
“Our company also produces -86 degree deep freezers with different volumes and all types of laboratory freezers and refrigerators for storing kits and medicines,” he added.
Bastami underlined that the device has been installed in more than 400 medical centers in Tehran.
A carbon dioxide CO2 incubator is a specialized laboratory equipment used for cell culture, which helps to maintain the optimal conditions required for the growth and survival of cells.
Cell cultures require a stable and sterile environment with a specific temperature, humidity, and gas composition. Carbon dioxide is essential for regulating the pH of the culture media, as it acts as a buffer to maintain the pH within the physiological range for the cells to grow.
A CO2 incubator helps to regulate the CO2 concentration, temperature, and humidity within the chamber, providing an environment that closely mimics the conditions of the human body. This controlled environment helps to ensure that the cells can grow and divide efficiently, while also maintaining their structural and functional integrity.
In addition, CO2 incubators are designed to prevent contamination by filtering the air and water used in the incubator, as well as providing a sterile environment for the cells to grow.
