Although cultures can be incubated in sealed flasks in a regular dry incubator or a hot room, some vessels, e.g., Petri dishes or multiwell plates, require a controlled atmosphere with high humidity and elevated CO2 tension. The cheapest way of controlling the gas phase is to place the cultures in a plastic box, or chamber (Bellco, MP Biomedicals): Gas the container with the correct CO2 mixture and then seal it.
