  • Very Accurately Pelleting Bacterial Cells

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    The 5810R centrifuge is a highly compact refrigerated bench-top centrifuge that is very versatile. This instrument's technical quality is outstanding as Eppendorf used high-quality materials and paid careful attention to the engineering and design. I use this centrifuge specifically for bacterial ... read more

  • Safety and Reliability in One Instrument

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    This is a nice work horse of a machine. It has been in operation for over 2 years with no issues. My department wanted to work with this machine so I showed them how to do it on one occasion and they were comfortable operating it the next time. Closed vials help with performing experiments with ... read more

  • Electrophoresis Unit for Nucleic Acid Gel and Blotting

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    This instrument speeds up the transition and reduces the risk of an error in sample order. The special positioning of the electrodes helps this gel to run fast without losing resolution. You can divide the unit into two parts if the size separation is not too big, which further increase the capacity... read more

  • Imaging System to Get High-Quality Pictures

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    This is a user friendly imaging system with built-in programming. It has high sensitivity and produces high-quality images. Densitometry can be performed with Image Lab software, in which you can do changes as per requirements later on. It is an excellent instrument with high quality and flexibility... read more

  • Easy Access Plate Rotor

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    For many biological applications, centrifugation of small samples is necessary, such as pelleting nucleic acids or proteins from solution, micro filtration of small aqueous samples, or simply collecting the last useful drops of liquid in the bottom of the tube. For these purposes VWR's micro plate ... read more

  • Easy to Use Monochromator with Excellent Quality

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    Two scanning monochromators are used by the optical system to evaluate optimum excitation and emission settings, resulting in assay output close to that of dedicated single-mode readers. This is a multi reader with good quality and you can check the results on the digital screen, which you can also ... read more

  • Fast and Easy to Use Nucleic Acid Extraction Instrument

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    This instrument allows extraction of nucleic acids from various samples with simplicity and ease. This helps you to remove DNA in 30 to 40 minutes, from up to 16 samples. Automating nucleic acid extraction reduces hands-on bench time, and decreases pipetting errors and repetitive movement injuries. ... read more

  • Superior Stereo Microscope with High Resolution

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    The adjustment in the distance of the optical axis allows for maximization of light entry into the optical system at each magnification. The effect is a smooth, wide zoom range, high resolution in both eye paths, and minimal aberrations across the entire zoom range. I use this instrument to check ... read more

  • Horizontal Electrophoresis System Lifts Easily

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    UV-transparent gel trays assist with sample visualisation. Cassettes protect the electrodes and allow quick substitution. Gel casting with the durable rubber casting gates is easy. I use this instrument when I need to specifically check the size of amplified products/bands very accurately. Its ... read more

  • Reduced Manual Labor for DNA, RNA and Protein Analysis

    Monday, April 27, 2020
    The samples are injected into the channel of separation, and their components are isolated electrophoretically. Pressure or electrokinetic forces push volumes of picoliters through the channels in a finely regulated manner. It is very easy to handle, flexible, and quick to work. I use this ... read more
