BINDER Presents New Products at ACHEMA 2009

Every three years BINDER presents new products at ACHEMA in Frankfurt, Germany. ACHEMA is the 29th International Exhibition-Congress on Chemical Engineering, Environmental Protection and Biotechnology. It takes place May 11-15, 2009 in Frankfurt, Germany and you can visit us at hall 6.1 booth D26-D28 and take a look at our new products like the CB 53 and others.

The new CB CO2 incubator has just been released to round off BINDER’s proven CB series for the most demanding level of cell cultivation; it is well suited for applications in cell and tissue cultivation, particularly for in-vitro fertilization. The new CB 53 presents a unique package of BINDER’s CB CO2 incubators in a very small footprint – absolutely contamination-free thanks to hot air sterilization at 180 °C, reliably stable pH, condensation-free interior. BINDER CO2 incubators can simulate these ideal conditions for culture growth also in an especially 53 liter compact design

The most important key features: - Contamination-free as a result of conform to standard over night hot air sterilization at 180° - Condensation-free, even at high humidity levels - Lower operating costs: 50 % lower energy consumption 40 % less CO2 usage* - Easy-to-clean interior thanks to the seamless, deep-drawn interior chamber and the absence of fans or HEPA filters - Stable pH values thanks to short recovery times with the drift-free FPI infrared measurement system - Standard innovative equipment with IR sensor, gas mixing head with Venturi effect or high quality program controller

BINDER CO2 incubators utilize the interaction of these multiple factors to provide optimum conditions for cell growth.

A journey into a fascinating world

Please join us as we explore the fascinating world of Bacteriography at our booth. You will be amazed at the unique artwork that can be created with the help of a BINDER refrigerated incubator. When bacteria is the topic, the first thing that comes to mind for most people is the potential danger of infection. But Austrian artist Erich Schopf thinks about colors instead. The knowledge that bacteria use pigments to guard against UV radiation gave Schopf the idea of using bacteria as a unique tool for creating color. He starts off a painting using a colorless liquid, i.e., working virtually “blind.” But the painting created with “live matter” already has color and form in the artist‘s inner eye. A BINDER refrigerated incubator then converts his mental vision into reality. Yes, it is really difficult to imagine, so join us and see how it works!
