Works in Every Incubator

The C-Chamber’s atmosphere can easily be controlled by any of our gas controllers including the ProOx (Oxygen Controller), ProCO2 (Carbon Dioxide Controller), OxyCycler profiling controllers (for all bioactive gases, e.g. Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, Nitric Oxide, Ozone, etc.) and Xvivo system (bioactive gas and temperature control).

Hypoxia chambers have mounting cutouts for ProOx and/or ProCO2 sensor adapters or OxyCycler actuator pods or custom adapters for specialized needs.

Each tray has a usable surface area for plates of 12.75” x 10.25” with a 2” clearance above the tray.

After the door is closed, our gas controller(s) will quickly restore the atmosphere inside the C-Chamber to your pre-programmed settings, minimizing the time your cells are exposed to room oxygen levels.

Custom Cell Culture Chambers

BioSpherix has been working with leading edge scientists for 30 years developing custom cell culture chambers for a large variety of applications. We can build any chamber to suit your needs.

Installation Options

Single Setpoint Oxygen Controller 1 Chamber in CO2 incubator

One controller requires mixed gas more affordable upfront

Single Setpoint Oxygen & CO2 Controller 1 Chamber in Standard Incubator

Using straight non-mixed gas, will save money in the long run

2 Single Setpoint Oxygen Controllers 2 Cell Culture Chambers in CO2 Incubator

Expand your research one chamber at a time while saving space for standard experiments

Oxycycler Dynamic Oxygen Controller 3 Chamber

With 2 profiling chambers & 1 control hone in on your target much quicker

Oxycycler Dynamic Oxygen & CO2 Controller 4 Chamber

With 4 Profiles, expedite results with less work

Gas Consumption

With 4 sizes of culture chambers you can truly customize your equipment to meet your research. Gas efficient cell culture has never been easier. Combine with a gas controller and you will no longer return expensive half-used premixed gas cylinders. Our chambers range from around 7-15% total volume of a typical benchtop incubator. 85-90% less volume can lead to a significant gas savings.

Avoid Sub-Optimal Conditions

Most cells in your body are ~3% O2. Unfortunately most scientists culture cells in room air which is 85% higher than typical physiologic conditions. Oxygen has been shown to be toxic at high and low levels. In today's world, elevated costs of operation and increased competition make it more important than ever to get consistent early-verifiable results. Every time your incubator door is opened and your cells start to see inconsistent conditions this can increase the noise in most experiments. C-Chambers can help reduce the signal-to-noise ratio. C-Chambers will also decrease recovery times dramatically; the graph below displays conditions in an incubator throughout a typical 12 hour workday. The 30 minute recovery times and non-optimal exposures are all but eliminated in a C-Chamber system

Transportability

Sometimes cells need to be transported down the hall, around the lab, or even to adjacent buildings for the next step in their research. With a C-Chamber you can just unplug and go. The C-Chamber will ensure your cells are protected from sub-optimal conditions at all times.

Preconditioning

Some experiments require cells be removed from the incubator for a great amount of time, whether you have a long distance to go, or your cells need preconditioning according to your protocol the C-Chamber can provide the right environment. Oxygen sensitive research is often corrupted when cells are exposed to sub-optimal conditions; random intervals each time a process is completed greatly magnifies the problem.

Flexibility

Up to four experiments in a single incubator. Never waste valuable incubator space with a specific protocol. Combine a few C-Chambers with our multi-chamber gas controllers and accelerate your research.
