Day 1
- Taking the cells, humidifying pan, and other internal parts out: Approx. 40 min
- High heat sterilization: Approx. 720 min (Approx. 12 hours)
Day 2
- Reinstalling the internal parts and adding water to the humidifying pan: Approx. 40 min
- Calibrating the temperature/CO₂ concentration: Approx. 120 min (2 hours)
After starting the changeover of cell cultivation, you can finally recommence cultivating from the afternoon of Day 2.
The total time it took over the last 2 days is approximately 920 minutes (15.3 hours)*.
This 15.3 hours × the amount you need to cultivate, is what may be reducing your productivity in your lab.
