Advantages include controlled environments for reliable microbial growth, precise temperature control, multiple sample accommodation, ease of operation, and accurate oxygen consumption measurement. Limitations include reliance on a stable power supply, regular calibration, high initial and running costs, sensitivity to ambient conditions, and a standard 5-day incubation time, which may not suit time-sensitive applications.
