AUTOMATIC INCUBATOR WITH SYSTEM FOR OPTIMIZING GROWTH CONDITIONS OF NEW STRAINS OF MICRO ORGANISMS

摘要

The present invention provides an automatic incubator with makes use of high resolution camera only to observe the cell growth and further makes use of a system embedded software to count the number of cells at various conditions. Various permutations and combinations of conditions required for optimum growth are performed with the help of embedded software itself and the incubator automatically sets these conditions one by one, without need of manual interface. Based on the growth and yield results achieved by each culture condition, automatic calculation of the best conditions at which maximum growth of cells is observed, is carried out inside the incubator. Hence the incubator is automatically optimized for a particular strain or micro organism to the precision of 0.1 unit.
