:I agree with most of what you said. Maybe ''Incubator (cell biology)'' would be a good solution, as this encompasses both microbiology and cell culture? However, it disregards tissue culture, but maybe there is no ideal solution. On the other hand, ''Incubator (culture)'' is fine too imho, the only problem it that it's not an obviously biology-related title. -- [[User:Shinryuu|Shinryuu]] ([[User talk:Shinryuu|talk]]) 09:08, 16 September 2011 (UTC) |

Name change
I changed the name of the article from "Incubator (laboratory device)" to "Incubator (culture)". It is not a perfect name, and if you object to the move, please let me know on my talk page, and I will move it back. I thought that the former name was both too long and imprecise. It indicated that the device was used in laboratories, but it did not give any indication of what it is for. Also, incubators for microbial cultures and cell cultures might be the most common laboratory incubators, but they are not the only incubators used in laboratories. For example, incubators for reptile or bird eggs could be found in some laboratories. The thing I dislike most about the new name, Incubator (culture), is that culture has multiple meanings. I suppose it could be mistaken for some kind of sociological phenomenon. I like the names "Incubator (microbiology)", "Incubator (microbial)" and "Microbial incubator" better than the current name. However, the article includes incubators used for cell cultures, not just microbial cultures. I hope that the new name is not too confusing. Again, please use my talk page to get my attention, as I will not be watching this page. Also, my presence on Wikipedia is erratic, and it might take a little while for me to get back to you. -- Kjkolb (talk) 02:53, 17 July 2011 (UTC)

First Incubator
»It was invented by Fe Del Mundo, the first Filipino, and possibly the first woman to study at Harvard Medical School.« How should this be possible, when Robert Koch (1843-1910) already worked with an incubator? --195.179.95.173 (talk) 12:53, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
