Incubator with germ-tight isolated areas

摘要

A laboratory climatic chamber assembly (10), to hold biological or chemical samples under given climatic conditions, has a controlled chamber zone (12) with access through a door opening (13) with a closing swing door (31), is new. A laboratory climatic chamber assembly (10), to hold biological or chemical samples under given climatic conditions, has a controlled chamber zone (12) with access through a door opening (13) with a closing swing door (31), is new. A separate chamber zone (14) is divided from the remainder of the chamber by a germ-tight sealing membrane (15), which is permeable to steam and gas but impermeable to microorganisms. The membrane has a maximum pore size of 0.5 mu m and is preferably =0.2 mu m. The separate chamber zone can contain a water bath (18) and a fan (19).
