Evaluation of Automated Cell Culture Incubators

摘要

Automated cell culture incubators generally are considered primary components of fully automated cell culture systems, which are able to monitor cell growth without human interaction. This tutorial is focused on automated cell culture incubators. It emphasizes the impact of automation on throughput and environmental controls (temperature, humidity, and CO2) and proposes some basic protocols to check these functions. In addition, it details practical aspects for switching from manual to automated cell culture incubators.
