Q. What is the difference between an incubator and a BOD incubator?

The foremost difference between an incubator and BOD incubator is temperature control. A normal incubator has just heating options and is normally performed at 37°C whereas a BOD incubator has both the heating and cooling options. This is the reason why a BOD Incubator is also referred to as a refrigerator incubator or cooling incubator because it holds both cooling and heating options. Most tests on a BOD incubator is performed at low temperatures like 10°C and 21°C.
