Baker Ruskinn InvivO2 300 Compact Hypoxia Workstation

Description

Baker Ruskinn InvivO2 300 — Product Highlights

• Provides physiologically relevant low-oxygen culture in one of the smallest hypoxia/physoxia footprints available, freeing bench and cleanroom space.
• Uses an acrylic airtight chamber with N₂ purge to establish and hold a precisely controlled low-oxygen environment for reproducible physoxia work.
• Delivers gloveless direct hand access through cuffed Ezee Sleeve ports in under 30 seconds, avoiding the disruption of traditional glovebox handling.
• Offers intuitive touchscreen control of oxygen, carbon dioxide, temperature, and humidity for straightforward day-to-day operation.
• Includes a large 10.7 L interlock that holds up to twenty-six 96-well plates with a fast 30-second purge time for efficient sample transfer.
• Serves as an affordable low-oxygen entry platform, letting labs add physoxia and hypoxia workflows to existing research programs with minimal risk.
• Complements standard cell-culture CO₂ incubators by adding true oxygen control for tissue and stem-cell applications that atmospheric incubators cannot replicate.
• Integrates with physiological culture accessories and Baker ReCO2ver rapid-recovery incubators for uninterrupted low-oxygen handling.
• Maintains the same core Baker Ruskinn control and access technology found across the InvivO2 range in a smaller, more accessible unit.
• ARES Scientific is an authorized distributor for the Baker Company, ensuring genuine InvivO2 300 units with full manufacturer warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions — Baker Ruskinn InvivO2 300

What is the InvivO2 300 compact hypoxia workstation?

The InvivO2 300 is a compact benchtop hypoxia/physoxia workstation that lets researchers culture cells under controlled low-oxygen conditions in a very small footprint. It combines an acrylic airtight chamber, N₂ purge, and gloveless Ezee Sleeve access so labs can add physiological-oxygen workflows without a large workstation.

What is the difference between the InvivO2 300 and the larger InvivO2 models?

The InvivO2 300 is a compact, more affordable single-chamber unit with a smaller footprint and a 10.7 L interlock, while the InvivO2 400, 500, and 1000 offer larger working volumes, bigger interlocks, and, in the case of the 1000, dual independently controlled chambers for higher capacity.

What applications is the InvivO2 300 used for?

The InvivO2 300 is used for low-oxygen cell culture applications including stem-cell research, cancer and hypoxia-signaling studies, and physiological cell culture where oxygen tension influences results. Its small size suits labs adding physoxia capability for the first time or running focused low-oxygen projects.

Does the InvivO2 300 need special utilities to run?

The InvivO2 300 requires a power connection and gas supplies, including nitrogen for the purge and low-oxygen control, but it does not require ducting and is designed for standard laboratory benches. Confirm exact gas and electrical requirements against the manufacturer documentation, and note it can sit alongside your existing laboratory incubators.
