Z365001800 MicroFlask Low-Well Clamping Device - Secure Lab Equipment for Precise Sample Handling in Biotechnology & Medical Research

Replace roller bottles and shake flasks with these systems! The MicroFlask is used for cell culture and mircobial cultivation and uses microtiter plates for easy operation, flexibility, and reproducible results. The benefits of this system include no well-to-well cross-contamination, low and uniform evaporation rates, well-to-well reproducibility and excellent gas transfer to each culture. Stackable design allows for up to four plates under each clamp, allowing flexibility for your research. For microbial cultures, bioreactors with microbial cultivations can require an air supply of up to two working volumes per minute. The MicroFlask sandwich covers allow for a headspace refreshment rate of 1 to 2 culture volumes per minute. This refreshment rate secures oxygen concentrations of at least 18% (v/v), even with oxygen uptake rates of 40 mmol 02/L-1 min-1. For cell cultures, the MicroFlask permits optimal gas transfer, and also minimizes evaporation from your plate. You can grow cells several weeks in a single plate without contamination! Deep-well plates constructed of high-purity polystyrene are ideal for cell culture applications. System setup is easy. The clamp mounts to your existing orgital shaking platform and securely holds microtiter plates in place. Orbital shaking platforms are ideal because this motion will increase the gas-liquid transfer, to provide uniformity in conditions across each well. Simply order a clamping device and sandwich covers (one cover per plate). Clamping Devices Low-Well Clamping Device is configured with four clamps. Each clamp will hold up to three 24-well or up to four 96-well low-well plates; allowing for a maximum of 12 to 16 plates depending on type of plate used. Order sandwich covers separately. What's Included: a gas-tight box for surrounding your plates with a custom atmosphere; excellent for biofuel applications! Use the cryo-replicator to sample from 96 frozen glycerol stocks. The glycerol stocks can remain.
