A Sphygmomanometer
A Sphygmomanometer
meter is a device used to measure blood pressure, comprising an inflatable cuff to restrict blood flow,
and a mercury or mechanical manometer to measure the pressure. It is always used in conjunction with
a means to determine at what pressure blood flow is just starting, and at what pressure it is unimpeded.
Manual sphygmomanometers are used in conjunction with a stethoscope
In biology, an incubator is a device used to grow and maintain microbiological cultures or cell cultures.
The incubator maintains optimal temperature, humidity and other conditions such as the carbon
dioxide(CO2) and oxygen content of the atmosphere inside. Incubators are essential for a lot of
experimental work in cell biology, microbiology and molecular biology and are used to culture both
bacterial as well as eukaryotic cells.
