The LMS Fruit Fly / Drosophila Research Cooled Incubators Series 2 are specialized incubators designed by Polestar Cooling Limited for the specific needs of Drosophila (fruit fly) research. These incubators provide the precise environmental control required to maintain healthy fruit fly cultures, support breeding experiments, and carry out genetic, developmental, and neurobiological studies. The Series 2 models offer advanced features to enhance performance, reliability, and energy efficiency compared to previous generations.
Fruit fly research (Drosophila research) is a critical area of scientific study that has provided invaluable insights into genetics, development, neurobiology, and human diseases. Drosophila serves as a powerful model organism due to its genetic simplicity, rapid life cycle, ease of maintenance, and the ability to replicate many biological processes found in more complex organisms, including humans. It continues to be at the forefront of research in a variety of fields, from genetics to drug discovery and neurobiology.
Series 2
