The present invention relates to a chemical vapor-sensor bag with an integrated sensor array to verify the presence of specific chemical vapors inside a sealed bag. In an exemplary embodiment, a device can be sealed within a vapor-sensor bag to allow the device to be transported to and tested for contaminants at the point of use by an end user of the device. In another exemplary embodiment, a device can be coupled to a gas port on a vapor-sensor bag to allow gas within the device to be tested for contaminants. In another exemplary embodiment, gas from a device can be streamed through vapor-sensor bag by coupling the device to a first gas port on a vapor-sensor bag and allowing gas to exit the bag through a second gas port.

There is provided an image-capturing device for an environment forming apparatus used for the environment forming apparatus. The environment forming apparatus includes an environment forming chamber configured to be adjusted to a predetermined environment, and a through-hole configured to connect the environment forming chamber to an outside. The image-capturing device for the environment forming apparatus includes: a camera; an inner tubular member; an outer tubular member configured to cover the inner tubular member; and an air blower. A first ventilation space is formed by an inside of the inner tubular member, and a second ventilation space is formed between the inner tubular member and the outer tubular member. Air is blown toward the camera by the air blower via one of the first ventilation space and the second ventilation space, and is exhausted via the other of the first ventilation space and the second ventilation space.

A decontamination appliance includes a control cabinet having a control circuit and a decontamination cabinet. The appliance also includes an ozone generator that supplies ozone to the decontamination cabinet. The ozone generator is controlled by the control circuit. A hydrogen peroxide vaporizer is also controlled by the control circuit. A circulation fan circulates a stream of air through the decontamination cabinet. The circulation fan circulates ozone generated from the ozone generator and hydrogen peroxide paper generated from the hydrogen peroxide vaporizer. The decontamination cabinet further has includes trays mounted on a tray rack, and the appliance is mounted on wheels for portable use. The decontamination appliance also preferably includes a humidifier.

The invention relates to a laboratory cabinet device for storing laboratory samples with a magnetic closure for the door. It in particular relates to a tempering cabinet for tempering laboratory samples, in particular, an incubator for the growth of cell cultures.

A housing for a laboratory appliance with a floor, ceiling, rear wall, side walls and front wall, which together enclose a work space. The front wall is movable between closed position and open positions. A work area in which liquids can be handled is provided in the work space. A filter device for ambient air is connected to the work space via at least one air outlet. At least one air inlet is connected to the environment, and a fan and an air filter are located downstream from the air inlet and upstream from the air outlet. An outflow opening is also located on the housing. The at least one air outlet and the at least one outflow opening are arranged on the housing such that, during operation of the filter device, the filter air stream flows substantially parallel to and along the work area.

An object of the present invention is to provide a low-temperature storage system that ensures minimal penetration of moisture into the low-temperature storage chamber from an external environment without involving an increase in size or complexity of the system configuration. The object is achieved by the configuration in this low-temperature storage system wherein a loading/unloading mechanism that carries storage objects into and out of the low-temperature storage chamber has an ancillary entry/exit preparation chamber. The entry/exit preparation chamber has a first anteroom with an interior space controlled to maintain a lower dew point than that of the external environment, and a second anteroom disposed between the first anteroom and the low-temperature storage chamber and having an interior space controlled to maintain a dew point that is between the dew point in the first anteroom and the dew point in the low-temperature storage chamber.
