Applications
Anaerobic chambers are essential for creating an oxygen-free environment to limit certain biochemical reactions, and for cultivating and studying anaerobic bacteria, which are essential for human microbiome research among other uses.
Because hypoxia is a common state in the tumor microenvironment (TME), particularly with solid tumors, Coy hypoxic chambers have been used to study the growth of cells under controlled oxygen conditions.
Both Coy anaerobic and hypoxic chambers have been used to study cell growth in controlled conditions, including in-vivo research and real-time studies of cell metabolic function at a range of oxygen levels.
Oxygen-Glucose Deprivation (OGD) is often used by researchers to mimic the conditions of blood flow restriction caused by ischemic stroke. Coy chambers are used to create stable hypoxic or anoxic environments.
Coy chambers maintain strict anaerobic conditions for c-diff studies, including studies of growth and oxygen resistance, disinfectant efficacy, and spore formation and survival. Coy chambers are also used for cultivation maintenance and storage.
In particularly sensitive cases, even trace amounts of oxygen or moisture can affect the accuracy of weighing. Certain products also need to be packaged in an oxygen-free environment to prevent spoilage, oxidation, or degradation.
We want to make sure our customers get the best value from their chambers, and that means starting with a base unit and deciding from there what changes or accessories are needed. When you’re ready, talk to us about your research, and we’ll guide you through options to help you determine the best chamber for your needs.
