Controlled Environment Climate Chambers |
 |
 |
Within UPSC, we have a number of climate chambers available for controlled environment studies. These include 7 “walk-in” climate chambers on floor 2 and 8 “walk-in” climate chambers on floor 3, within the new high security growth facility. There are 4 smaller controlled environment cabinets located on floor 2, and 5 Percival cabinets on floor 3 (2 for in vitro culture and 3 Arabidopsis chambers for whole plant growth). The cold room on floor 2 is also available for growing and/or winter-hardening large (and small) plants.
These different controlled environment chambers and cabinets are available to all members within UPSC and can be set to a wide range of temperature and irradiance conditions to suit individual experimental requirements.
