DiluCult™ Gravimetric Dilutors and Sample Homogenizer

DiluCult™ and DiluCult™ 2 instruments can be extremely easily calibrated with a certified weight. Choose your specific dilution factor on the user interface or switch to a dispensing mode for other applications.

The DiluCult™ dilutor is a simple and flexible instrument for precise dilution that can be tailored to your needs. The authorized weight for this instrument is up to 3 kg.

The DiluCult™ 2 instrument has a robotic dispensing arm for higher safety and can be used for dilution of large pooling samples of up to 5 kg.

Advantages:

  • Automate repetitive workflow steps
  • Reduce hands-on time and error rates
  • DiluCult™ 2 instrument accessories are ideal for pooling samples
  • Add an additional pump for faster media dispensing

Blender for Food Sample Homogenization

For efficient solid food sample preparation, try our enrichment sample homogenizer (ESH) with security dip tray. With 2 removable and autoclavable massaging paddles, the ESH can be cleaned extremely easily. The ESH instrument has a multi-function digital display which serves as the control panel, where variable speed and time can be set. The maximum volume for this instrument is 400 mL. The gap between the window door and the paddles can be adjusted manually to better accommodate your specific sample types.


Advantages:

  • Quick homogenization of large samples
  • Accurate: adjustable speed, time and blending strength
  • Easy to use: simple cleaning procedures and user-friendly interface


Anaerobic Culture Methods with the Anaerocult® System

The Anaerocult® system is based on a common basic principle where components of the Anaerocult® reagent mixture react with water to chemically bind all or part of the atmospheric oxygen (O2) in a given volume of air (anaerobic jar or special incubation bag), while simultaneously releasing carbon dioxide (CO2). The resulting growth environment is rich in carbon dioxide and either devoid of oxygen (anaerobic) or oxygen deficient (microaerobic/capneic). We have a range cost-efficient Anaerocult® products to fit your microbiology needs.
