Incubators may be also both warmed and regulatedby electricity. In emergencies, a culture may be developed at the blood temperatureby placing it in a closed jar or bottle which is placed in a larger vesselfilled with water heated at 38° C. By adding a little hot water fromtime to time to the outer vessel the temperature can readily be keptbetween 34° and 38° C, which is sufficiently uniform for bacteria suchas the diphtheria bacilli to grow. A Thermos bottle will answer thepurpose. As a temporary expedient during the night, when haste isnecessary, it is possible, when the culture medium is solid and within a I Fig. 57 Fig. 58.
