Yes we all know that Daily Mail journo's aren't the sharpest tools in the box, but this headline about pertussis infections (which in the article they do call a bacteria) is really irking me

Random lab equipment Q. We've relied on these amazing microplate incubators for years (have them in all our labs), but they're old.

Not found anything that comes close for temperature uniformity for functional/killing assays, and lab footprint

Any #microbiology #immunology folk have any ideas?
