The Necessity of Nitrogen for Incubator O2 Control in Hospitals

IVF, or In-Vitro fertilization, is an artificial way to make infertile couples get children of their own, which is very popular among childless people. The fertilized embryo is cultured in an incubator for a few days before transplanting into the womb of its mother. This incubator should have a correct proportion of gases inside it to make the embryo grow healthily. As oxygen speeds up metabolism, the amount of this gas should be minimized in the incubator. Nitrogen gas is needed to replace the oxygen there and provide an inert atmosphere. MVS Engineering Pvt. Ltd provides the best quality nitrogen generator that can supply nitrogen for incubator O2 control as needed.


Why use a nitrogen generator to control the O2 level in the incubator?

The nitrogen generator provided by MVS Engineering is proven efficient in meeting the requirements of lowering the oxygen level in an incubator. Several valid reasons are enlisted here for why this generator is needed to supply nitrogen for incubator O2 control.

• The atmosphere inside an incubator is maintained just like the interior space of a uterus and fallopian tubes of a pregnant woman. Thus, the oxygen level in the incubator cannot be more than 5%, while the normal atmospheric air contains 20% oxygen. Hence, the amount of oxygen is reduced by the gradual introduction of nitrogen in the incubator.

• Pure nitrogen is supplied by a nitrogen generator, which flows at a controlled rate into the incubator to lower the oxygen level there. Usually, the nitrogen plant of MVS Engineering produces upto 99% pure nitrogen that fulfills the purpose of creating a neutral atmosphere in the incubator.

• Since the onsite nitrogen generator supplies nitrogen gas continuously, there is no risk of a shortage of this gas in the incubators of a hospital or fertility clinic. Thus, doctors and technicians do not need to worry about the disruption of nitrogen supply while growing an embryo successfully.

• The operation of the nitrogen generator is very easy and does not require any extra manpower for it.
