Product news

AWEL International presented its new brand of centrifuges at Medica 2010. All centrifuges provide large capacity for the class of model and, with the ergonomic AWELook™ design, offer easy access (other centrifuges are up to 40% taller), space-saving and simplicity of use.

Classical units also incorporate AWELight™ indication that samples are ready for analysis. Multifunction models add AWELock™ permitting rotor exchange in seconds and locking it onto the shaft and AWELine™ leveling control for absolute safety, important at their higher speeds. A range of 9 centrifuges is offered, with more to come.

Also shown at Medica was a selection of products from the new AWEL range of microbiology equipment. This includes blending, media preparation, distribution, pouring and air sampling instruments. A range of controlled environment products – CO2 incubators, biosafety and laminar flow cabinets, anaerobic cabinets, refrigerated storage units – is also available and a special series of products dedicated to blood banking extend the offer.

Available through a network of trained and knowledgeable distributors, the innovative products from AWEL ensure the customer of excellent performance, value and reliability.

CentrifugesCentrifuges are used to separate particulates suspended in a liquid via the application of a centrifugal force including cells, macromolecules, nanoparticles and precipitates. Centrifuges come in three sizes: microcentrifuges, benchtop and floor-standing centrifuges, depending on the volume and number of samples that require separation. When choosing a centrifuge, consider its maximum separation power indicated by its relative centrifugal force (RCF) value. Low force centrifuges reach a maximum RCF of 8,000 g, high-force centrifuges can reach maximum RCF values of 80,000 g. For extremely high forces, consider ultracentrifuges (up to 800,000 g). Refrigerated and vacuum centrifuges also known as concentrators are available for more specialized applications. A range of volumes are available for centrifuge tubes and microfuge tubes, depending on sample sizes. Find the best centrifuges in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.

Safety equipment includes radiation safety, radioactive / hazardous waste disposal, alarms and personal safety.
