Incubator-shakers are vital components of laboratories working in microbiology and molecular biology research. Thus, highly qualified personnel trained in these areas at the Institut de recherche en biologie végétale (IRBV, affiliated with the Département de sciences biologiques of Université de Montréal) frequently require this equipment. Our Institute currently has a large incubator-shaker which is 18 years old and has become unreliable and costly to maintain. This equipment is located in our common biochemistry equipment laboratory. It is heavily used by students working in the laboratories of the applicants and also serves as an occasional resource for other IRBV laboratories. In the recent years, this incubator-shaker has been having increasingly frequent problems of temperature and rotation speed control. These problems cause unacceptable delays in our students' research activities. Funds are therefore requested to purchase a large capacity incubator-shaker adapted to accommodate all our applications (cultures of different sizes grown at various temperatures). This grant will allow us to replace the current failing equipment.

培养箱是微生物学和分子生物学研究实验室的重要组成部分。因此，在植物生物学研究所（IRBV，附属于蒙特利尔大学生物科学系）接受过这些领域培训的高素质人员经常需要这种设备。我们的研究所目前有一个大型的培养-振荡器，已经使用了18年，变得不可靠，维护费用很高。该设备位于我们的普通生化设备实验室。 它被申请人实验室的学生大量使用，也作为其他IRBV实验室的偶尔资源。 近年来，这种培养-振荡器已经具有越来越频繁的温度和转速控制问题。 这些问题对我们学生的研究活动造成了不可接受的延误。因此，需要资金购买一个大容量的培养-振荡器，以适应我们的所有应用（在各种温度下生长的不同大小的培养物）。这笔赠款将使我们能够更换目前的故障设备。
