BIO Growth Test Chamber FDML - 1180L volume
A BIO Growth chamber is a climatic chamber specifically designed for plants, seeds and small living organisms such as insects and bacteria.
Unlike standard climatic chambers, it allows to control, in addition to temperature and humidity, also lighting.
Light and temperature control has always been associated with growth.
Among the various reasons why a growth chamber is a primary tool for scientific research, there is certainly reproducibility. This means being able to perform an experiment, in order to confirm or deny its outcome. This possibility is allowed by the uniformity of the parameters during the test and by the absence of unforeseen circumstances that would be common in a real environmental situation. In fact, a BIO Growth chamber reproduces natural conditions without unpredictability, with lighting, temperature and homogeneous humidity, according to different test requirements.
Its features make the growth chamber an essential tool for agricultural and chemical research, and generally for scientific purposes.
A plant growth chamber is in fact used for plant diseases research, thus it contributes to the R&D of more resistant food crops and seeds.
An insect growth chamber incubator for insects recreates the natural habitat of an living organism, in order to study its behavior and characteristics.
Based on the type of light intensity, hence on the specific area of application, there are four different types of FDML BIO growth chambers:
Daylamp - which reproduces full spectrum sunlightBiolamp - selected spectrum, specific for insect growthFluolamp - towards the yellow area of the spectrum, specific for plantsArablamp- for Arabidopsis, a particular type of plants
FDML BIO Growth chambers lighting is enabled thanks to fluorescent lamps that optimize the photobiological processes of plants and organisms, by emphasizing the lamps in the blue and red range.
The FDML lamps can be Neon, Led or UV rays lamps: these latter are very common in the requirements of laboratories and research institutes.
