Safe Aspiration of Liquids with VACUSAFE from INTEGRA

Watch this video to see how liquids can be safely aspirated using the VACUSAFE System from INTEGRA Biosciences. As an alternative to “do-it-yourself” systems typically found in laboratories, the VACUSAFE aspiration system offers increased safety, exceptional user friendliness and high versatility.

VACUBOY - Vacuum Aspirator

INTEGRA Biosciences

VACUBOY – For aspiration of liquids from all sorts of containers The VACUBOY is a convenient tool that converts a vacuum source into a user friendly system for aspirating liquids from virtually any laboratory container – at the touch of a button and in a controlled way. The hand piece, the core element of the VACUBOY, is simply connected to any available vacuum source using silicone tubing and fitted with one of the different aspiration adapters. The perfect match is obtained when the VACUBOY is connected to a VACUSAFE aspiration system. Features and benefits: • Adapters for aspiration with Pasteur/serological pipettes, disposable pipette tips or stainless steel needles. • Multi-channel adapters for fast emptying of multi-well plates. • Completely autoclavable for maximal safety in the lab. • Vacuum regulation by a touch-sensitive button for controlled and smooth aspiration of liquids.

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.
