What Is an Incubator?

An incubator is a device that maintains optimal temperature, humidity, and other conditions to support the growth of organisms or the development of embryos.

In laboratories, lab incubators are used to cultivate bacteria, yeast, or cell cultures. In agriculture, egg incubators help hatch eggs by simulating the conditions provided by a brooding hen.
