A rocker mammalian cell culture system is described. The basic mechanical component is a special incubator with contained rocker culture trays. The system provides for precise environmental temperature regulation with intermittent rocking of contained cultures in such a manner as to permit thin fluid overlay of cells with maximum accessibility to oxygen while circumventing the problems of evaporation, substrate depiction, etc.
