Climate Chamber

Automated Cabinets for Environmental Control & Monitoring

Control Your Experiment Conditions

The environmental control chambers were specifically designed for indirect calorimetry experiments. The environment becomes part of the experiment with temperature, light and humidity under tight software control. Visual inspection of the experimental animals is possible through windows equipped with a filter foil blocking all external light from the visible spectrum in mice. Red light illuminates the chamber during programmed dark phases. The chambers also reduce noise to a minimum compared to open housing conditions.

These versatile chambers are the perfect solution for research requiring meticulous environmental control, such as:

  • Understanding thermoregulation and its impact on metabolism.
  • Studying the effects of temperature challenges on physiological responses.
  • Investigating brown fat activation mechanisms and their role in energy expenditure.
