Laboratory shakers are instruments that help to form a homogenous mixture from more than one ingredient. Used in many types of industry, such as food and beverage, cosmetic,
pharmaceutical, and electronics, as well as labs that deal with life sciences, wastewater treatment, and biotech, laboratory shakers are an important part of many labs.
Laboratory shakers do just that - shake the mixtures that are placed on them. Plates vibrate back and forth or circularly to mix the components. Some laboratory shakers have plates that tilt up and down as well as side to side for an added mixing element.
The first step in choosing the right machine is to decide the vibration speed, how adjustable the speed is, and if the plate tilts as well as vibrates. The second step is to choose which movement you need such as: orbital, rocking, twisting, waver etc.
Main application:
● Cell cultures ● Bacterial suspensions
● Solubility studies ● Staining
● Extraction procedures ● Destaining
● Diagnostic tests ● Washing Procedures
● General Mixing ● Hybridization
Types of shakers we have: Microplates, Wrist Action, Orbital, Rocker, Reciprocal, Twist, Platelet, Vertical
