Critical parameters in cell culture
Climate chambers designed for cell culture must ensure a controlled environment that maintains cell viability and functionality:
Temperature:
Ideal range: 36°C-38°C for human and animal cultures.
Minimal variations (±0.1°C) are crucial to avoid cellular stress that could alter experimental results.
Relative humidity:
Levels between 85%-95% prevent dehydration of the culture medium and ensure osmotic stability.
Homogeneous control to avoid excessive condensation or dry spots inside the chamber.
CO₂:
Levels between 5%-10%, essential to balance the pH of the culture medium.
Automatic injection systems guarantee constant regulation.
Light:
In photosensitive cultures, a controlled spectrum is necessary to avoid radiation damage or unwanted activation of cellular processes.
.
Cell culture applications
Biomedical research:
Study of diseases such as cancer, using tumour cells in controlled media to evaluate responses to new drugs.
Research on tissue regeneration and development of cell therapies.
Pharmacological testing:
Evaluation of drug toxicity and efficacy prior to clinical trials.
Bioequivalence testing for generics and biosimilars.
Molecular biology:
Production of recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies.
Studies of cell signalling mechanisms and gene regulation.
Benefits of using climate chambers in cell culture
Advanced climate chambers, such as those offered by TestingLab, are designed to meet the most stringent requirements of biomedical research:
Completely sterile environment:
HEPA filtration systems to prevent microbial contamination.
Stainless steel interior surfaces for easy cleaning and sterilisation.
Real-time parameter control:
