The best defenses are layered

The In-Vitrocell combines layers such as smooth chamber construction and constant HEPA filtration as defensive lines against contamination. A choice of high heat or humidified decontamination cycles on most In-Vitrocell models provides redundant protection against contamination of your cell culture.
