Shaking incubators, also know as environmental shakers, are often used for cell culturing, cell aeration, and solubility studies. In addition to stable temperature conditions, they use an orbital agitation at variable speeds to affect the growth of cell cultures.
Scientific Industries
Enviro Genie 50Hz 230V and 60Hz 120V Refrigerated Incubators.
Scientific Industries SI-1200 and SI-1201 refrigerated incubators with min temperature range 4°C, max temperature range 75°C, and a +/- 0.2 °C accuracy. These incubators are 24.5″ wide, 14.5″ tall, and 19.5″ inside depth.
The Enviro-Genie is multi-functional as a Refrigerator / Incubator / Rotator / Rocker / Stirrer for the study of micro-organisms and tissue cell growth under strictly controlled conditions of temperature and agitation. Designed to provide the security of precise temperature control and uniformity for demanding incubation/refrigeration applications without taking up a great deal of space. It performs membrane-based assays/washings and hybridizations more efficiently.
Benchtop Refrigerated Incubators
Refrigerated Benchtop Shaking Incubator
Lab Companion Digital Incubating/Refrigerating Shakers with dual-action shaker lets you select between orbital or reciprocating motion. Min temperature 15°C and 22 gal chamber volume capacity. Stainless steel interior, powder coated steel exterior, anodized duraluminum measuring 16″ x 16″. Temp accuracy is +/- 0.1°C at 38°C.
These digital shakers feature variable 10 to 300 rpm speed control via the user-friendly keypad with push-button controls. Fan circulation ensures excellent temperature uniformity. Brushless DC motor gives long maintenance-free operation. Refrigerated models are CFC-free. The air spring door and lid guard against sudden closures. Self-diagnostic function identifies any errors and advises correction procedures.
What is a Shaking Incubator?
Like a general incubator designed to control environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity a shaking incubator uses orbital agitation at variable speeds to affect the growth of cell cultures. The function is a motor that spins inside the device most often used in microbiology experiments.
Shaking incubators are used to increase aeration, equal solubility, shorten growth periods, and expose each sample tube to consistent conditions for more accurate experiments.
