Breeder—a flexible Incubator
For further details, contact: sales@automedsystems.com |
Automed
along with its international partner Wheaton Science Products has launched
the Breeder, a flexible, foldable incubator for cell culture, in India.
This portable incubator can be easily stored by collapsing and folding. It
is made of flexible plastic and fibers, with a control unit containing the
temperature control sensors and heaters. It is positioned as a low cost
alternative to a standard incubator for roller culture applications. The
breeder is less expensive than a standard incubator and frees up valuable
space for other experiments. The roller rack with the Breeder can be
easily moved to accommodate laboratory space and traffic requirements.
They can also be moved as one unit to allow more convenient working space
(bottle filling near laminar flow hood, so the roller rack provides a
place to put the bottles and the risk of contamination is reduced). It can
monitor the temperature of the culture environment and report it to a PC
for logging purposes.Domino brings out a new coding equipment
Domino
Printing Sciences Plc, a leading solution provider for printing and coding

Automed
along with Wheaton Science Products has introduced a disposable suspension
culture flask called MantaRay. This is an unbreakable, safe,
pre-sterilized and single use cell culture vessel to grow suspension cell
cultures. It is made of flexible plastics, saves space, comes with a
gentle, efficient stirrer and is ready to use—complete with magnet.
MantaRay is used for growing cultures of mammalian cells, but can also be
used for plant and insect cells. Its proprietary stirrer technology is
designed to minimize damage to fragile cells, such as mammalian cells. The
culture flask also allows media and gasses to be added or changed during
the experiment under sterile conditions and it can culture cells on
micro-carrier beads, which the cells use as a growth surface. The product
is targeted at universities, pharma, institutes or companies performing
cancer research, producing proteins, enzymes or antibodies and researchers
in insect and hybridoma cell cultures.
