Insect Rearing Chambers Kansas City, MO

Darwin Chambers offers state-of-the-art Insect Rearing Chambers in Kansas City, MO.

Insect Rearing Chambers Kansas City, MO. When studying or working with drosophila (fruit flies), mosquitos, and other insects, you need access to precise and reliable insect rearing chambers in Kansas City, MO that provide an environment specifically meant for breeding, rearing, incubating, and observing the insects you are working with. You need a dedicated insect rearing chamber that is designed specifically for insect work and goes beyond simple manipulation and measurement of light, temperature, and humidity provided by a standard environmental chamber.

Insect Rearing Chambers need further enhancements and industry-specific specifications to ensure that the room can properly grow the specimen without being compromised by the specimen or methods used to procure it. Standard Walk-in Chambers and Environmental Chambers often do not meet these requirements due to the problematic conditions that can arise from the rearing of certain specimen. Darwin Chamber's Insect Rearing Chambers are specifically designed and manufactured rearing chambers that protect and enhance the growth of specimen while also adhering to standards required to ensure the maintainability of the room. To inquire about the Insect Rearing Chambers that we make available to Kansas City, MO clients, contact our team at 314-534-3111 or online right away.

Insect Rearing Chambers Kansas City, MO

Standard or general incubators or coolers have several issues that affect the researcher's ability to rear of insects and other biological organisms. The acids that are commonly produced by the rearing of insects or the food they eat can quickly corrode a standard refrigeration evaporator. High humidity exacerbates the issue, as droplets of concentrated acid will accumulate on the cooling components. Other providers use cumbersome evaporator units that are more prone to experiencing leaks that can be costly and also require the replacement of expensive components, other than the evaporator itself, due to compromised oil (modern refrigeration oils are very hygroscopic) in the system. For example, if you have ever worked with Drosophila, you recognize that they bring propionic acid to the chamber that can render a new, conventional incubator useless in as little as 6 months.

The scenario stated above is a clear cause for concern. There are a number of other issues with standard incubators for insect use as well. Most incubators are designed for a standard audience and don't require the protections that are needed for insect rearing, and because of this are unsuited to insect rearing applications. Details that are often overlooked include:

• Ability to easily shut off all heat or cold producing equipment in a malfunction.
• High-heat decontamination.
• Minimal Noise.
• Simple to Program.
• Overall reliability in a corrosive atmosphere, and many others.

Many of today's incubator manufacturers still rely on dated technology, but the truth is much biological research is never done at temperatures below 15 degrees Celsius. Any ability to go below that temperature can actually be detrimental to the insect specimen and related research.

For anyone looking for the best insect rearing chamber in Kansas City, MO, we have a multi-part approach:

• Epoxy coated air handlesa material which acheives long-term resistance against corrosion.
• Running the rooms without refrigerant in the room. After almost a decade after turning our back on straight refrigerant in mild heat load applications, we are glad we did. Our Precision Fluid Temperature Control Unit, or PFTCU, is an excellent solution for insect rearing rooms in Kansas City, MO. This method of cooling boasts low pressure, easy maintenance, and reliability. Ge more details on our technologies page.
• We utilize U.V. sterilized ultrasonic humidification. It is exact. This system generates minimal heat and thus requires a smaller compressor and consumes less energy. On top of all this, our insect rearing chambers are still able to provide very precise, excellent temperature uniformity.
• Exclusive Antimicrobial Coated door handles to reduce bacteria from growing and spreading.
• The low profile, 2" floor maximizes available space, provides insulation performance, and allows minimal ramp requirements to satisfy A.D.A. requirements.
• Optional panel surface finish available in black embossed galvanized steel to mimic nighttime inside the chamber.

Our non-proprietary standard controls are proven and extremely accurate and reliable. The setpoints and alarms on our insect rearing chambers in Kansas City, MO are easy to set. Diurnal ramping/soaking/cycling of temperatures is standard.
