Continuous Active Background Contamination Control fights contamination while cell culture protocols are in process without downtime or compromise to the incubator’s performance. The patented SafeCell UV treats interior airflow to destroy airborne and humidity pan contaminants and InCu saFe® copper-enriched stainless steel interior surfaces assure constant germicidal protection. When total chamber decontamination with verification is required, the unique H2O2 decontamination option limits downtime to less than three hours. Hydrogen Peroxide Vapour Decontamination The use of low temperature H2O2...

Incubator configured for decontamination sequence. Interior components are reoriented for in situ decontamination. The H2O2 generator is placed on the rear floor. The incubator fan gently circulates vapourized H2O2 during the vaporization phase, decontaminating all interior surfaces. Following the vaporization cycle the UV lamp reduces H2O2 to trace decontaminated water. Incubator configured for decontamination. Generator receptacle is built-in and capped when not in use. Decontamination Cycle The H2O2 decontamination cycle is monitored for safety and cycle status. A physical interlock and neutralization...

H 2O 2 and Ultraviolet Light: The Fastest Combination The H2O2 decontamination process permits quick turn-around of the cell culture incubator from process to process where a complete decontamination is required. Applications include in vitro fertilization, tissue regeneration and other highly specific protocols subject to intense scrutiny or regulation. A secure environment for delicate cells The H2O2 incubator decontamination system in vitro is an extension of the Panasonic Active Background Contamination Control technique introduced by Panasonic in 2001. Now part of the MCO-19 incubator series,...

The Panasonic MCO-19AIC CO2 Incubator and MCO-19M Multigas incubator are designed for demanding and regulated applications in the biomedical, pharmaceutical, medical research and clinical laboratory. Representing years of research, development and component testing, the MCO-19AIC and MCO-19M offer outstanding performance and advanced, multi-level contamination control to provide the ideal solution for cell culture protocols. High Heat Models Panasonic Benefit Minimal planning required. Entire process can be completed in lessthan three hours. Significant downtime expected. Process can take up...

Active Background Contamination Control Panasonic’s Active Background Contamination Control combines narrow bandwidth, ozone-free ultraviolet light and InCu saFe® copper-enriched stainless steel alloy interior to fight contamination whilst the incubator remains in use. The MCO-19AIC is ideal for critical applications where continuous contamination control is essential to cell viability. The incubator offers significant economic benefits by minimising interruptions for decontamination, by improving cell culture growth and expression under stable, repeatable conditions, and by minimising the potential...

Intelligent Control Interface Intelligent Control Interface with Integrated LCD Display The MCO-19 series incubators are managed by an integrated microprocessor controller with graphical LCD to simplify all incubator functions. The PID controller supervises the incubator’s advanced systems to provide stable CO2, O2, temperature and humidity conditions complete with alarm, programming, calibration and diagnostic protocols. l A multi-function, high resolution LCD displays set-points, actual performance and incubator status at-a-glance. An intuitive Pop-up menu and function keys provide straight-forward...

Precise Control of Culture Environment The MCO-19AIC and MCO-19M offer the most stable cell culture environment with outstanding control and recovery performance of temperature, CO2 and O2 concentration. Dual Wavelength Infrared CO2 Control System The Panasonic single beam, dual detector infrared CO2 sensing system offers unprecedented control accuracy and stability by simultaneously measuring sample and reference wavelengths for continuous auto-zero calibration. The ceramic-based sensor is unaffected by moderate changes in temperature and relative humidity and is linked to the sophisticated...

Direct Heat and Air Jacket Heating System The patented Direct Heat and Air Jacket provides precise and uniform temperature control. Uniform temperatures are further enhanced by gentle fan circulation. Elevated Humidity, Low Water Level Warning To avoid cell culture desiccation, the MCO-19AIC maintains 95% RH at 37°C. l The direct heating provides highly responsive temperature control in response to door openings and the surrounding air jacket ensures uniform heating of the incubator eliminating ‘cold-spots’ and preventing condensation. l l The microprocessor provides PID control of the three...
