HOW DESIGN HELPS WHEN YOU OPEN THE FRIDGE DOOR AND CONDITIONS INSIDE RUSH TO EQUILIBRIATE All parameters are important. Proper temperature, gas tension (CO2/O2/N2) and humidity work together to provide optimum growth. Speedy recovery to your set parameters is a critical consideration any time you want to mimic an in vivo state. The goal of […]
Water for bacterial cell culture should be at least Type II quality, while the more sensitive mammalian cell culture requires Type I ultrapure water with high resistivity (> 18 MΩ.cm) and free from bacteria, endotoxins and other contaminants to avoid adversely affecting the culture.
