Equipment for a streamlined workflow in cell culture
The new Liquid Handling Set is now available for a special introduction price. Contact your local distributor to profit from this offer valid until the end of 2009.
Successful manipulation of cells relies on the ability to maintain sterility and
to avoid cross-contamination between cell lines. This requires proficiency in
aseptic technique, which greatly depends on a highly controlled workflow
and a well organised work area inside the biological safety cabinet.
The Stand for the PIPETBOY and VACUBOY significantly supports streamlined
and organised working when pipetting and aspirating cell culture media. Key
advantages of the Stand include:
An organised set-up in the clean
bench keeps the liquid handling
tools within reach for fast and
safe handling of cells and ensures
an efficient use of the sterile area.
Economic use of sterile pipettes
without risk of contamination as
the Stand allows users to park
the VACUBOY and PIPETBOY
with inserted pipette.
PIPETBOY and VACUBOY are
held in an ergonomic position
making work less tiring.
Liquid handling tools are kept
in a secure position so that
accidental falling and breaking
are avoided.
Stainless steel construction
ensures easy cleaning and
sterilisation as well as durability.
The Stand integrates the serological pipetting aid PIPETBOY and the vacuumbased
aspirator VACUBOY into a complete liquid handling station for cell
culture. These high-value tools are therefore bundled into a Liquid Handling
Set (“basic” or “plus”) that also includes the VACUSAFE aspiration
station.
The VACUSAFE included in
the Liquid Handling Set “basic” is an
all-in-one aspiration station that
meets the requirements for safe handling
and containment of liquids.
The shatterproof bottle, hydrophobic
filters and fully autoclavable parts
offer effective protection against hazardous
liquids.
The VACUSAFE in the Liquid
Handling Set “plus” is additionally
equipped with quick couplings for
conveniently changing the waste
bottle and is fitted with a level detection
that automatically shuts off the
vacuum when the bottle is full.
The Stand also securely holds the
PIPETBOY comfort with an inserted
pipette.
The Stand is designed for use
by
right- as well as left-handers
The Stand allows the user to easyly change application by quickly swapping the pipetting aid PIPETBOY with the aspiration
tool VACUBOY fitted with one of several different adapters.
