A modular and flexible open source cell incubator system for mobile and stationary use.

ABSTRACT: Culturing living cells in vitro requires the maintenance of physiological conditions for extended periods of time. Here, we introduce a versatile and affordable incubation system, addressing the limitations of traditional incubation systems. Conventionally, stationary cell incubators maintain constant temperature and gas levels for in vitro cell culturing. Combining such incubators with additional lab equipment proves challenging. The presented platform offers modularity and adaptability, enabling customization to diverse experimental needs. The system includes a main unit with a user-friendly interface as well as an interchangeable incubation chamber. We present two incubation chambers targeting two completely different use cases. The first chamber, named "inkugo" facilitate
