WORKS PERFECTLY Thermo HERAcell 150i CO2 Incubator, w/ sterilization

Thermo Forma Series II Water-Jacketed CO2 Incubator Model 3130 We calibrated the unit at 37C at 5% CO2 in a humidified environment using an IR CO2 meter by Gas lab which accurately logs CO2 concentration to 0.01%. Touch screen and heating features all function properly.  Copper shelving. The anti-microbial properties of copper are well established in the scientific literature (don't let the nonsense about copper bracelets turn you off). Copper is a superior incubator surface compared to stainless steel. Copper oxide works just as well. Manufacturer's description:
