Great results
Reactive Extraction
Very good and versatile.
Review Date: 21 May 2022 | Thermo Fisher Scientific
Great product. Helped me grow my yeast cells without fear of contamination.
Cell growth
It has new features not found in automated incubators. It has Contracon which allows me to decontaminate my incubator just once a quarter without having to open the chamber door.

Cytomat 2 C450-LiN with Tower Shaker is an effective automated incubator solution for any biologics workflow
In this application note, Thermo Fisher Scientific compares the performance of the Cytomat 2 C450-LiN, equipped with Tower Shaker Stacker, with another automated shaking incubator in the market and an offline shaking incubator. The shaking patterns of both automated incubators were determined, and the biological relevance of the shaking technology was analyzed in detail.
TechTalk: De-risking automated cell culture with advanced incubation technology
Friday, April 17 at 15:00 BST | 16:00 CEST | 10:00 EDT | 07:00 PDT
As cell-based assays scale in complexity and throughput, incubation performance becomes a critical determinant of achieving reliable, high‑quality results. Variability in temperature, CO₂ concentration, humidity, and contamination control can drastically influence cell proliferation, phenotype stability, and overall assay success. In automated environments, where plates move frequently and systems share infrastructure, these risks are amplified and can cascade into significant variability if not tightly controlled.
In this SelectScience® TechTalk, discover an automated incubation solution engineered to deliver precise environmental control, rapid recovery, and integrated decontamination routines such as ContraCon™. In just 20 minutes, Dieter Wagner from Thermo Fisher Scientific will demonstrate how the Cytomat™ 2 C‑LiN Series Automated Incubator will elevate your incubation strategy and support reliable, reproducible cell culture performance in high‑throughput automated workflows. The session will also highlight the importance of environmental stability for consistent cell growth, and will show how smart plate‑handling automation reduces contamination risks and minimizes process variability.
