INTEGRA Biosciences is giving you the chance to win a VACUSAFE Aspiration System for your lab. This compact, all-in-one laboratory vacuum pump is designed to enable safe and efficient collection and containment of biological liquid waste, meeting stringent biosafety level guidelines (BSL-1 to -3). Easy to use and operate, it combines a vacuum pump, collection bottle, overflow protection and hydrophobic filter in a closed system, with a range of safety features that promise total containment of biohazardous liquids and optimal protection of operators for maximum productivity.

Each VACUSAFE system is supplied with the VACUBOY vacuum hand operator, which can be fitted with a variety of adapters and consumables to allow gentle aspiration of liquids from virtually any type of labware, including tubes, dishes, bottles, T-flasks, and 24 and 96 well microplates, as well as fast emptying of large culture flasks. To further increase versatility, two VACUBOY hand operators can be connected to the same VACUSAFE, allowing two people to work simultaneously in one biosafety cabinet.

We’re giving you a chance to win one of 20 VACUSAFE Aspiration Systems for your lab, including:

  • VACUSAFE Aspiration System with integrated pump
  • 4 liter bottle (polypropylene) and bottle handle
  • Lid with quick tubing couplings (PVDF) and liquid level sensor
  • Tubing set with filter
  • VACUBOY hand operator

VACUSAFE - Vacuum Aspiration System

INTEGRA Biosciences

VACUSAFE – Safe aspiration of liquid waste Laboratory vacuum pumps are commonly used to aspirate liquids such as media from cell cultures or supernatants after centrifugation. Protecting the operator and equipment from contamination by an overflow trap and filter is good laboratory practice when disposing biological, chemical or radioactive liquid waste. The VACUSAFE combines vacuum pump, collection bottle, overflow protection and filter in an all-in-one liquid aspiration system. Such a closed aspiration system offers the most effective method for containment of hazardous liquids by maximal personal protection. The ergonomic VACUBOY hand operator and its adapters provide the flexibility to aspirate liquids from a wide range of laboratory containers including cell culture vessels and multi-well plates. The VACUBOY is the perfect match to the VACUSAFE. Features and benefits: • Collection bottle outlet with hydrophobic filters to block hazardous aerosols. • Automatic shut-off combined with a signal when bottle is full. • Quick couplings to connect tubing for safe bottle installation. • Quite operation for pleasant working. • One-button operation to adjust vacuum for simple use. • VACUBOY included for convenient aspiration of all kind of liquid waste. • Space saving design for minimal work space consumption.
