MixMate 0.5 ml Tube Holder

High speed mixer (3000rpm) for fast and efficient mixing of small volumes in all types of plates and tubes up to 2 ml Includes a patented vortex function that causes minimal hand-arm-vibration for ergonomic operation Unique 2D Mix-Control technology (planar mixing orbit without vertical movement) creates high mixing power and guarantees a controlled liquid vortex which prevents splashing and spilling Whisper quiet operation (<50 dB (A)) to benefit the work environment Extremely small footprint to fit on crowded lab benches Unique plate holder provides easy operation and secure fit for all plate formats (MTP, DWP and PCR plates) Patented imbalance sensor prevents plates from detaching Tube holders enable mixing of semi- and unskirted PCR plates as well as micro test tubes from 0.2 to 2 ml 5 program keys with pre-optimized mixing parameters for ease-of-use with standard applications in 96 and 384 well plates and micro test tubes Digital display for reproducible parameter selection Keypad design for easy cleaning Dimensions: 6.7 x 9.1 in / 17 x 23 cm 2-year warranty Applications: Rapid, controlled mixing enables homogeneous experimental conditions from well to well/tube to tube and thus increases reproducibility. Applications include: Mixing PCR preparations Re-suspending pellets (e.g., bacteria, DNA, cell culture pellets) Incubation (e.g., ELISA assays) Quantification of proteins using colorimetric dyes (e.g., Bradford, Lowry, BCA) Reporter gene assays (e.g., b-galactosidase, luciferase assay) Mixing restriction preparations Vortexing numerous tube formats
