Correction table to maintain the same partial pressure in incubator of CO2 and O2 as at sea level

EXAMPLE:

Laboratory is at 1500 m above sea level where the partial pressure is 0,85 atm. The desired CO2 concentration is 6% then you calculate 6/0,85 atm = 7,1 and your incubator setting should be 7.1% CO2 in order to have 6% CO2 inside the incubator
