Probe in holder
Media Measurement
To check the temperature of media in a
culture dish we recommend preparing a test
dish in your normal manner but with water
drops instead of culture media. The probe
tip is waterproof so the tip can be immersed
directly in the water drop. Allow the reading
to settle before recording or adjusting the
temperature. The probe can be held by
hand or placed in the holder supplied.
Incubator Measurement
If the incubator has a dedicated access port for temperature
measurement then pass the probe through this port and ensure it is
correctly sealed. Otherwise, the probe cable is thin enough to pass
through the door seal. Refer to the incubator instructions for further
details.
