PHCbi MCO-170MUVH-PE IncuSafe Multigas Incubator for quasi in vivo cell culturing

The 160 litre format MCO-170MUVH-PE is one of a range of five PHCbi IncuSafe Multigas Incubators that offer ultra-precise regulation of oxygen and CO₂, while maintaining superior temperature uniformity, contamination control, and usability. This makes them ideal for replicating virtual in vivo conditions to optimize the culturing of cells.

The MCO-170MUVH-PE with built in UV lamp and H₂O₂ decontamination options is therefore ideally suited for mammalian tissue research applications, cellular therapy, stem cell research, pathophysiological oxygen studies and pharmaceutical production processes.

Design and features

The MCO-170MUVH-PE provides effective capacity of 161 liters in the incubation chamber featuring a PHCbi IncuSafe antibacterial copper-alloy stainless interior lining, five shelves, and plenum that help to eliminate molds, spores and other contaminating spills, kills mycoplasma, creating a noncorrosive environment.

The IncuSafe MCO-170MUVH Multigas Incubator offers the most precise regulation of oxygen and other CO₂, while maintaining superior temperature uniformity across a range from +5℃ above ambient to 50℃. This incubator also stresses rigorous contamination control, and usability.

The Dual Infra-Red (IR) sensor achieves ultra-fast CO₂ recovery without overshoot, even following multiple door openings whilst the unique solid state Zirconia O₂ sensor delivers precise control of physiological oxygen levels to simulate in vivo conditions.

Other features include:

• USB port for data export
• Optional passcode-protected electric door lock for added security
• LCD touch screen for ease of use
• Adjustable shelves with integrated shelf supports for easy reconfiguring of storage
• Standard SafeCell UV lamp for inbuilt active decontamination
• Exclusive IncuSafe copper-enriched stainless steel interior for passive contamination resistance
• Direct Heat and Air Jacket Heating System for temperature stability and uniformity
• Field-reversible doors.
• Optional Hydrogen Peroxide Vapor Decontamination for faster decontamination procedures

Applications and Benefits

Culturing cells at physiological oxygen levels allows them to grow faster, live longer, and experience fewer mutations. The MCO-170M Multigas Incubator helps to achieve more accurate results when culturing cells at physiological oxygen levels and is therefore ideally suited for mammalian tissue research applications, cellular therapy, stem cell research, pathophysiological studies and pharmaceutical production processes.

These qualities make this incubator ideally suited for stem cell research & differentiation, In vitro fertilization, regenerative medicine, primary cell culturing, cancer research, and embryo studies.

These and other laboratory applications are supported by a distinctive set of user benefits that include:

• Close reproduction of in vivo conditions
• Time-Saving H₂O₂ Decontamination
• Improved Use & Maintenance
• Efficient Workflows
