Great dry bain-marie (with a very attractive price/quality ratio)
Application Area: Enzymatic digestion (37°C) / RNA extraction / Thawing of cryotubes (after tissue freezing)
"Product very easy to access, easy to configure and very attractive price/quality ratio compared to the competition. Small drawbacks are that the heating of cryotubes seems to take place a little less quickly than with a liquid water bath (the cold makes the temperature of the heating block drop rapidly). Also, the appliance sometimes goes into "ring" mode when it is 'switched on' and has to be switched on again before it can be used. "
Review date: 16 Dec 2020 | Mixer HC
The new Mixer HC is suitable for a wide range of applications due a selection of exchangeable thermoblocks (sold separately) available for all commonly used vials and plates.
The powerful motor mixes up to 1500 rpm while the precise thermal element heats samples up to 99° C or cools them down as far as 13° C below room temperature.
The Mixer HC is very easy to use due to intuitive setting of parameters and simple programming. The robust construction despite its small footprint makes the Mixer HC your new companion for your daily lab work.
