Thermo Scientific Vios iDx AD 255 CO2 Incubators are designed for integration into automated laboratories that leverage a modular design to scale. The VIOS family of incubators are known for optimal cell growth conditions and minimal contamination risk. With the added innovation of a patent-pending automated door control, these leading incubators now bring their excellent recovery and uniformity to emerging automated cell therapy production processes 24/7, 365.
Many industry experts agree that human handling and complex processes limit broader application of cutting-edge cell therapies to treat cancer, autoimmunity, and orphan diseases. As automation is incorporated across the sector, these treatments can be produced in a more cost effective way. Several companies are developing advanced robotics to help meet these goals and Heracell VIOS 250i AxD CO2 Incubators are a natural fit. Various therapies are researched and developed in these incubators due to their excellent culturing conditions that help ensure important cellular critical quality attributes.
Cleanroom compatible CO₂ incubators
Thermo Scientific Vios iDx CR CO2 Incubators are third-party certified cleanroom compatible and suitable for ISO Class 5 and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) grade A/B environments. They feature an active particle control system and demonstrated compatibility with commonly used cleanroom cleaning methods, making it the exceptional fit for your cleanroom suite or GMP production environment.
Download our ebook Five Reasons to choose a cleanroom CO2 incubator that is certified compatible for an in-depth look at the advantages of using a CO2 incubator with cleanroom certification.
