Drosophila and Small Insect Chambers
Our flexible insect chambers are designed for research applications involving Drosophila melanogaster, mosquitos, or other insects. The chambers can be outfitted with timed lighting and/or additive humidity generation, among other options.
Refrigerators and Freezers
Powers Scientific offers a wide array of refrigerators to suit many applications such as vaccine storage, reagent storage, liquid chromatography, flammable liquid storage, and more.
Incubators
Powers Scientific offers many different incubators to suit a variety of applications. With our refrigerated incubators capable of operating across a temperature range of 2-50°C, and our humidified incubators capable of reaching 80% RH, we can provide chambers for applications ranging from BOD studies, to zebrafish research, to ninhydrin acceleration and more.
Rodent Incubators
With a temperature range of 6.5-50°C, our rodent incubators offer flexibility in environmental conditions for rodent housing. These chambers utilize a fresh air ventiliation system capable of 15 air exchanges per hour, and come equipped with clock-controlled lights among other features.
Diurnal Plant Growth Chambers
When you need day/night temperature and lighting control for plant studies, our diurnal chambers can meet your needs. These chambers are also capable of running cold studies; they have an operating temperature range from 2-50°C.
Plant Tissue Culture Chambers
Our plant tissue culture chamber was designed for micro-propagating Arabidopsis thaliana or other plant species from tissue cultures. These chambers can operate from a low of 5°C (lights off) to a high of 50°C (lights on).

Can Male Mosquitos Feed on Blood?
Traditional understanding holds that only female mosquitoes consume blood, which provides the nutrients necessary for egg production, while males rely solely on plant sugars for energy. This binary distinction underpins much of mosquito biology and vector control...
Using Radioactive Ion Beams to Beat Cancer Cells
Cancer treatment has evolved dramatically over the centuries. Ancient approaches relied on surgery or herbal remedies. By the late 19th century, the introduction of anesthesia and antisepsis made surgery safer. After the discovery of X-rays (1895) and radium (1898),...
Do Heat Waves Make It Harder for Bees to Detect Flowers?
These days, many people are aware that bee populations around the world are under threat. The decline in bee populations is driven by multiple interacting factors, including habitat loss/fragmentation, pesticides, pathogens/parasites, pollution, invasive species, and...
