An apparatus in which environmental conditions (light, photoperiod, temperature, humidity, etc.) are fully controlled, and used for hatching eggs, multiplying micro-organisms, culturing plants, etc.
Industry:Biotechnology
An apparatus that extracts heat from a fluid or gas that is marginally above ambient temperature. Heat pumps are commonly used to heat (or cool) greenhouses and laboratories.
Industry:Biotechnology
An assay system which detects proteins by using an antibody specific to that protein. A positive result is seen as a precipitate of an antibody-protein complex. The antibody can be linked to a radioactive atom or to an enzyme which catalyses an easily monitored reaction such as a change in colour.

Industry:Biotechnology
An assembly of vesicles and folded membranes within the cytoplasm of plant and animal cells that stores and transports secretory products (such as enzymes and hormones) and plays a role in formation of a cell wall (when this is present). It is named after its discoverer, the Italian cytologist Camillo Golgi (1843-1926).
Industry:Biotechnology
An early animal embryo consisting of two layers of cells; an embryological stage following the blastula.
Industry:Biotechnology
