The Z130 FytoScope Chamber represents a remarkable combination of an LED-based growth chamber and a measuring device, providing well defined culture conditions. The illumination can be controlled in its power, spectral composition and temporal modulation. Temperature, gas atmosphere composition, and shaking power can be constant or varied. The FytoScope is primarily designed for cultivation and monitoring of higher plants. Alternatively, it can be used for growing algae and cyanobacteria in Petri dishes or Erlenmeyer flasks that are exposed to well defined irradiance, kept in constant temperature and, if needed, supplied by gas mixture.
