Incubator Shaker

An incubator shaker is a specialized laboratory instrument that combines the functions of an incubator and a shaker. It provides a controlled environment for the growth, cultivation, and agitation of biological samples, such as microbial cultures, cell cultures, and other temperature-sensitive experiments. The combination of incubation and shaking capabilities makes it an essential tool in various fields, including microbiology, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and life sciences research.

The primary purpose of an incubator shaker is to create optimal conditions for the growth and development of biological samples by providing a controlled temperature, humidity, and agitation. The instrument consists of a chamber or cabinet that houses the samples and a mechanism for controlled shaking. The chamber is typically equipped with shelves, racks, or holders to securely hold the sample containers, such as flasks, tubes, or microplates.

Incubator shakers offer several advantages for laboratory applications:

• Temperature Control
• Shaking and Mixing
• Programmable Parameters
• Humidity Control
• Versatility in Sample Containers
• User-Friendly Interface
• Safety Features
• Sterility and Contamination Prevention
• Data Logging and Connectivity

Incubator shakers are essential tools for the cultivation of various biological samples under controlled conditions. They provide a stable and optimized environment for the growth, maintenance, and study of microbial and cell cultures. The combination of temperature control, agitation, and other features makes incubator shakers valuable instruments in laboratories aiming to perform controlled and reproducible experiments in a wide range of biological research fields.
