MANSFIELD, PA – The Mansfield Foundation has recently purchased two carbon dioxide incubators for the Mansfield University Biology Department. Carbon dioxide incubators are used to grow mammalian cells in a dish, outside of the body. This unique resource will support coursework and research for our students. As the biomedical field is rapidly advancing, it is our jobs to provide our students with relevant experiences to prepare them for employment in industry, academia, and healthcare professions. These incubators will help biology students and faculty do just that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carbon dioxide incubators control the\ntemperature, humidity, and amount of carbon dioxide in the environment in which\nmammalian cells are grown. It is crucial that this environment is tightly\nregulated and maintained in order to ensure reliable and reproducible\nexperiments. The incubators also have a self-sterilization feature to eliminate\npotential bacterial and mold contamination. These high-quality incubators will\nbe a great asset to Mansfield University students.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
