Press Releases

SANYO Electric Biomedical Co., Ltd., Osaka, Japan (distributed by SANYO Biomedical, Bensenville, IL)  today announced the latest addition to its cell culture CO2 incubator line with integrated ultraviolet(UV) contamination control technology and Direct Heat & Air Jacket technology, U.S. Patent Nos. 6,255,103 and 8,519,188

Model MCO-18AIC, marketed as part of the convenience minded Personal Series to ultimately save space, time, and money for the end user, is available with SafeCell UV technology as an option to preventatively protect in vitro cell cultures from contamination without culture downtime in a 6.0 cu.ft. chamber size.

The SafeCell UV integrated contamination control technique is effective against airborne organisms including mycoplasma, bacteria, molds, yeasts, spores and fungi, as well as thermophillic and hyperthermophillic contaminants that can survive high-heat decontamination cycles.

SANYO exclusive copper-enriched inCU saFE stainless steel interior surfaces are germicidally resistant to contact contamination and spills for additional preventative contramination control

The solid state infrared(IR) CO2 sensor integrated with a first of it's kind P.I.D/R CO2 Sensor Control algorithm recovers the chamber CO2 environment at unprecendented speeds after door openings.
