What is a Vivarium Room? The term "vivarium" comes from the Latin words for "place for" and "living things." In short,. That can be a range of functions and sizes, from a heated glass box for a reptile on a kid's desk, to the penguinarium at the Prague Zoo. For research purposes, vivarium rooms can also be called animal research facilities, and their purpose is to store animals and/or plants in a specific, controlled ecosystem. These microecosystems are essential for observing plants or animals under certain conditions, or humanely housing animals who are being used for research purposes. Things to Keep in Mind When Purchasing a Vivarium Room in Raleigh, NC There are numerous environmental controls necessary to keep a vivarium room functioning properly. For your research purposes in Raleigh, NC, you need to know that your controlled environment room can properly maintain: Light — Different organisms need different levels and types of lighting that meet their adapted needs. "Cold-blooded" animals need sunlight to warm themselves, while some plants do best in the shade. Different bulbs offer different levels and types of heat and light, and we can also offer a regulator to simulate night and day. Temperature and Humidity — In a similar vein, different life forms can only survive with a temperature and humidity similar to their natural habitat. Heat can be sourced from a building's system or heat lamps. Ventilation — Ventilation is essential for circulating air, preventing mold growth, preventing the growth of damaging bacteria, and balancing the ventilation between the vivarium room and other areas of your facility. There are a variety of exhaust fan options we can fit for your room, depending on what works best for you. A life form's physical environment is as important as anything to keeping them healthy.
