Features
  • Innovative mixing due to reverse spinning of the sample around its own axis
  • Due to innovative mixing technology it is possible to measure optical density of the probe in real time
  • Store, display and analyse the data in real time
  • Compact device with low profile and small footprint for personal application
  • Temperature control allows use as an incubator, e.g. for cell growth
  • The ability to change parameters such as temperature, RPM and “Reverse-Spin” frequency, allows to achieve consistency and reproducibility of results
  • Programmable Cycling/profiling of cultivation parameters such as temperature, RPM, “Reverse-Spin” frequency
  • The ability to remotely monitor the process of cultivation while home or using a mobile phone
Software features
  • Real–Time cell growth logging
  • 3D graphical representation of OD or growth rate over time over unit
  • Pause option
