Lab Manager’s Independent guide to purchasing a lab shaker, stirrer or Mixer

By: John Buie
From Lab Product News, Published: 1/6/2010
…………………………………………………………………………
There are many different factors to consider when making a lab shaker, stirrer or mixer purchase:
Is the equipment going to be used to grow cultures or to mix chemicals and liquids?
Is temperature control needed, and if so, do you need incubation only or refrigeration as well?
Do you [...]

MICROPLATE MIXING, bioassay panacea or of unproven distraction?

By Dr John Comley .  Winter 2007/2008
DDW – Drug Discover World

Despite general awareness of the significance of microplate mixing, it is still a relatively low priority in most laboratories. Microplate mixing has largely been ignored as a serious problem, although potentially it could undermine the generation of meaningful data.
In September 2007, [...]

BioShake iQ - Optimized temperature homogeneity while heating processes

The BioShake thermomixers are perfectly suitable for applications in calibration laboratories and conform to the requirements specified by DIN ISO 9001:2000. The instruments provide highest temperature accuracy to ±0.1 °C and temperature uniformity better than ± 1.0 °C across the heating surface. Reference temperature measurements can be carried out with integrated additional precision reference sensor. [...]

Optimization of mixing results in microplates

We present video-clips of mixing processes in microplates.

Fast and gentle mixing of samples in 384- and 1536-well microplates can only be succeed with orbital shaking and frequencies >2000 rpm.
Watch the videoclip…

The ideal mixing frequency is dependent on the well size, the filling volume and the viscosity of the solution.
