An incubator (or isolette [28] or humidicrib) is an apparatus used to maintain environmental conditions suitable for a neonate (newborn baby). It is used in preterm births or for some ill full-term babies.
An incubator is a device simulating avian incubation by keeping eggs warm at a particular temperature range and in the correct humidity with a turning mechanism to hatch them. The common names of the incubator in other terms include breeding / hatching machines or hatchers , setters , and egg breeding / equipment .

Regarding the incubator, technicians should place one patient per incubator and avoid frequent door opening. Taking into account the number of embryos used in the culture, group embryo culture is recommended, so they can exchange growing factors while time is saved in the lab but embryo fusion is a drawback that has to be taken into account, in ...

Incubators are essential for much experimental work in cell biology, microbiology and molecular biology and are used to culture both bacterial and eukaryotic cells. An incubator is made up of a chamber with a regulated temperature. Some incubators also regulate humidity, gas composition, or ventilation within that chamber.
Embrace was founded in 2008 by Jane Chen, Linus Liang, Naganand Murty and Rahul Panicker.The four founders met as graduate students at Stanford University in a Design for Extreme Affordability course, where they were challenged to design an infant incubator that would cost 1% the price of traditional incubators (about $20,000 in the US).
