Globally referenced by thousands of protocols in food microbiology, the Stomacher® 400 Circulator is the gold standard in laboratory blenders.
The unique patented Circulator paddle design improves organism recovery over older square paddle designs by enhancing the stirring and extrusion forces applied to the sample, driving more organisms into suspension for analysis.
The digital control panel provides simple control of processing features such as paddle speed and processing time, essential for consistent results. These features are programmable for repeatable homogenization protocols.
The Stomacher® has a 3-year warranty owing to the quality of build and components and is highly durable and reliable, ensuring consistent homogenization during frequent use. The 400 Circulator offers:
- Enhanced organism recovery over square paddles
- Durable & reliable, designed for consistent use
- No cross-contamination between samples
- Simple to clean and requires minimal maintenance
- It is suitable for volume sample sizes from 400ml -3500ml
- 3-year warranty, 10 years service, and support
The Stomacher® Bag Range has been designed to fulfill all applications from blending, stirring, and storage of samples, with no risk of cross-contamination between samples. The Stomacher® 400 Bag Range caters for both the Circulator bag (round-bottom) designed bags, and the Classic (square-bottomed) for the older square paddle designed Stomachers®.
Our Stomacher® bags are made from high-quality food-grade virgin LDPE granule, extruded to 65μm film thickness. All Stomacher® Bags are irradiated sterile. A certificate or irradiation is available upon request.
