ABSTRACT:
A hybridization incubator, of a type usefully employed to perform blot nucleic acid and protein/antibody hybridizations and stringency washes for blot procedures such as Northern, Southern, Dot, Slot, Colony, and Western blot techniques, wherein the hybridization incubator comprises an incubator chamber of irregular geometric shape. In a specific embodiment, the hybridization incubator comprises: (a) a housing including walls and a door cooperatively defining an enclosed interior volume within the housing, wherein the interior volume is bounded by segmented wall surfaces forming at least one obtuse included angle between adjacent wall segments; (b) a rotational carousel assembly constructed and arranged for holding hybridization sample(s) thereon, and mounted in the interior volume within the housing; (c) means for selectively rotating said rotational carousel assembly; and (d) means for heating gas and circulating heated gas in the interior volume of the housing over the segmented wall surfaces.
