Anaerobic Incubator Workstation, 57 L Incubator, O2 ≤0.5%, RT+3 to 60°C, Glove Box and Airlock

The Master Science Anaerobic Incubator Workstation combines a constant-temperature incubator, a glove-box operation chamber and a sampling airlock in one cabinet. Samples can be inoculated, handled and incubated without ever being exposed to air, which is essential for strict anaerobes.

Using nitrogen or a mixed gas, the operation chamber is brought down to 0.5% oxygen or less within about 1.5 hours, and the airlock is purged automatically in about 15 minutes at a single touch. Mixed gases also allow microaerophilic or low-oxygen conditions. The 57 L incubator runs from 3°C above ambient up to 60°C under PID control, and a UV lamp, loop sterilizer and wax melting device are built in.

Key Benefits

• Never expose anaerobes to air: The Master Science Anaerobic Incubator Workstation links incubation, handling and transfer in one sealed system.
• Quick sample transfer: The airlock reaches anaerobic conditions in about 15 minutes.
• Flexible atmospheres: Mixed gases give anaerobic, microaerophilic or low-oxygen conditions.
• Clean working space: UV lamp, loop sterilizer and wax melting device are built in.

For general cultures that need CO2 rather than an oxygen-free atmosphere, see our CO2 incubator 40-240 L beside the Master Science Anaerobic Incubator Workstation.

Anaerobic Culture Problems the Master Science Anaerobic Incubator Workstation Solves

Anaerobic jars and bags expose samples whenever they are opened. The Master Science Anaerobic Incubator Workstation addresses:

• Oxygen exposure during handling: Work through gloves inside an oxygen-free chamber.
• Slow transfers in and out: The automatic airlock cycle takes about 15 minutes.
• Separate incubator and workspace: Incubation and handling share one sealed system.
• Contamination of the work area: UV lamp and loop sterilizer keep it clean.
