Tissue, bacteria, cell cultures as well as microorganism, require protection in a controlled and physiologically ideal environment. More so for v where reliability and precisions of the CO2 incubator are of extreme importance, as the smallest disturbance in the CO2 atmosphere, humidity or temperature continent during cultivating can affect the development of the cell. For this reason, Memmert has subjected its CO2 incubators INCOmed passes through a comprehensive process of evaluation for their recognition as a medical device. The unit is considered a class IIa medical device that confirms that Memmert CO2 incubator INCOmed adhere to the necessary safety requirements of the European Medical Devices Directive 93/42/EEC.
