Construction of temperature-control compartment 2 Construction of room 2 Heating equipment 5 Page. Description of temperature-control systems 7 Temperature recorders 11 Cost of operation I6 The automatic control of temperature within close limits is veryimportant in many lines of commercial work. It is of special im-portance, in fact, is a necessity, in laboratories where chemical, bac-teriological, and physiological investigations are conducted. Inmany instances success in the maintenance of cultures depends uponth?. ability continuously to maintain practically constant microorganisms, as , do not grow except Avithin verynarrow temperature limits, the optimum temperature being ° C.
