Whitepaper highlights how high-speed sensors can improve CO2 response time for incubators

CO2 incubators are designed to mimic a cell’s natural environment and ensure conditions are constant. Although there are different types of incubator, most are designed to control CO2, relative humidity, temperature and pH at constant levels. New high-speed CO2 sensors are now available that allow designers to respond and manage gas levels with unprecedented fidelity.
