Abstract: An automatic culturing device configured such that, in a work chamber 2a maintained in a sterile state, first and second robots 6 and 7 are arranged so that the movable ranges thereof partially overlap each other, and such that liquid supply means 10 which supplies liquids, containing a culture medium and liquid medicine, to containers held by the robots, and temporary placement sections (handing-over table 42, centrifuge tube holder 43, and heated room 44), each of which hands over the containers between the first and second robots, are provided in the movable ranges of the first and second robots, which ranges overlap each other.The first robot takes out the containers housed in housing means (rotary stocker 8), and the second robot holds and transports the containers handed over from the first robot via the temporary placement section.The cultivating operation can be efficiently performed.

Abstract: A culturing device configured such that an isolator 2 has at least two communication ports 2dA and 2dB, and such that an incubator 4 is connected to each of the communication ports via a connecting member 114 (connection means 111).In the state where the work chamber 2a and the inside of the incubator 4 can be made to communicate with each other by opening the one communication port 2dA and a carrying-in-and-out port 4d of the incubator 4, which carrying-in-and-out port 4d is made to communicate with the communication port 2dA, the other communication port 2dB and the carrying-in-and-out port 4d of another incubator 4 are closed, and decontamination gas is supplied into the decontamination space S formed inside the connecting member to thereby decontaminate a portion exposed to the decontamination space.Thereby, the cultivating operation can be efficiently performed.
