Passive CO₂ Measurement
Measures CO₂ directly inside the incubator environment without active gas extraction.
Passive, continuous in-chamber telemetry to safeguard culture media pH, without disrupting workflow.
Explore Incubator SensorCulture media rely on a precise CO₂ environment to maintain physiological pH. Even small fluctuations in incubator CO₂ can rapidly alter media pH, creating an unstable environment that may compromise embryo development. Continuous CO₂ measurement helps embryologists detect changes before they become a clinical concern.
The Passive Advantage: Traditional CO₂ measuring devices actively draw gas from the incubator, potentially disturbing the very microenvironment they are designed to measure. Metrum Genie uses passive CO₂ measurement with advanced Mid-Infrared (IR) technology, measuring directly inside the incubator without extracting gas. No gas extraction. No disruption.
Measures CO₂ directly inside the incubator environment without active gas extraction.
Accuracy of 0.1% between 4.5% and 7.5%.
Designed to occupy a single incubator chamber with minimal workflow disruption.
Simultaneous measurement of CO₂, temperature, humidity, and pressure within the chamber.
Designed specifically for benchtop incubators, the sensor supports continuous long-term measurement of critical parameters while maintaining normal incubator operation and sealing.
The entire sensor unit is engineered to fit seamlessly inside a single 66mm incubator well, occupying minimal space and ensuring minimal workflow disruption.
Engineered for comprehensive incubator validation. Accurately verify CO₂ concentrations across individual chambers and dynamically profile environmental events, including lid openings and precise gas recovery times.
Eliminate the need for multiple independent probes. Continuously measure ambient CO₂, temperature, relative humidity, and atmospheric pressure simultaneously using a single, highly calibrated sensor unit.
Engineered for the high-humidity, demanding conditions of IVF laboratories. The unit features a wipe-
clean, medical-grade ABS casing and a PTFE mesh to protect the sensor from moisture ingress. The
system is supplied pre-calibrated for simplified setup.
