In public health laboratories of developing countries, robust and reliable incubators are critical for disease surveillance and diagnosis. They are used in the identification of tuberculosis (culturing *M. tuberculosis*), diagnosis of bacterial meningitis from cerebrospinal fluid, and monitoring antibiotic resistance patterns.

The challenges here are unique: often intermittent power supply, voltage fluctuations, limited funding, and harsh environmental conditions (heat, dust, humidity). Therefore, the ideal incubator for such settings prioritizes durability, simplicity, and power resilience. Models with excellent insulation (like water-jacketed designs) can maintain temperature longer during outages. Analog controls can be more serviceable than complex digital ones. Solar-powered or battery-backup compatible units are highly valuable. NGOs and global health initiatives often focus on providing and maintaining such equipment.

Furthermore, incubators are used in quality control of vaccines in national regulatory labs and in monitoring the safety of water supplies through microbial testing. In this context, a functioning incubator is not just a piece of lab equipment; it is a cornerstone of the healthcare infrastructure, enabling local diagnosis and informed public health responses, reducing dependency on distant reference laboratories and saving lives through timely intervention.
