Where to use Coda®
Coda® may be used in all closed environments such as incubators,
environmental chambers, mini clean rooms, and biological chambers where
air quality and questionable unwanted contaminants are serious concerns.
History of Coda® Development
The interest in the possible effects of air quality on IVF
began with the observations of decreases in in-vitro embryo
development and pregnancy rates associated with the move of
an IVF lab from suburban Naples, Italy to the downtown area
(1992), and associated with construction around another IVF
lab in New Jersey in 1995. Some environmental effects from
other events involving construction in neighbouring spaces
and the use of toxic materials in lab spaces preceeded these
periods. Significant concentrations of volatile organic
contaminants (VOC) were measured in the laboratory air, and
in the compressed CO2 used for the incubators (Cohen
et al. Hum Reprod 12: 1742-9, 1997). Based on these observations, Coda® incubator units were
designed for use inside the incubators, Coda®
InlineTM filters
for the CO2 supply, and Coda Tower® for purifying the air in the IVF
laboratory itself.
