Freedom Rocker™ BotBlot® 

The Freedom Rocker™ BlotBot® is an automated blot processor. The fully programmable blot processing station automates the tedious incubation and washing steps required to process blots and gels, thus saving time and money through increased productivity. All trays receive the same reagent or wash buffer at the same time, in equal volumes, ensuring consistency.

Simply dispense individual reagents (in volumes as low as 3.5 mL) into appropriate trays and recover them separately. This allows the conservation of primary antibodies. The control panel has a large graphic display and intuitive layout making it easy to program protocols. These protocols can include different rocking speeds and times for each step. 

BlotBot® with a clear window can be employed when using reagents that are not light-sensitive in western blots. BlotBot® with a blackout window is recommended when using fluorescent reagents in western blots to preserve their integrity.

• Automated delivery and removal of buffers/reagents
• Dispense and recover different antibodies or reagents in each tray
• Only 3.5 mL or reagent per blot is needed due to specially designed trays
• Reagent recovery
• Easy to use-just plug in
• Quiet, no air or vacuum connections necessary
• Drip-proof quick-release connections
• 2-year warranty

Platform and Accessories

Benchmark™ Orbi-Shaker CO₂™

• For optimal growth of suspension cells
• Designed for use in CO₂ incubators
• CO₂, temperature, and humidity compatible
• Remote controllable - adjust settings without opening the incubator door
• Change flask clamps instantly with MAGic Clamp™ magnetic platforms
• 2-year warranty

The new Orbi-Shaker CO₂™ resistant shaker is designed for shaking, mixing, and aeration applications in extreme environments, including CO₂ incubators. It can withstand temperatures from 0-60ºC, humidity levels up to 100%, and won't corrode in a CO₂ environment.

To avoid contamination, unintentional release of gas, or deviations from protocol, both speed and time are set via the included remote-control module. The remote controller allows the user to set and adjust the shaker settings without opening the chamber doors.

The instrument is supplied with a 13"x12" non-slip platform. In addition, convenient MAGic Clamp™ platforms (large or small), are also available for use with Erlenmeyer flasks and test tube racks. The unique magnetic attachment method has been widely recognized as the easiest way to instantly change between flask clamps of different sizes.

Orbi-Shaker™ XL

The Orbi-Shaker™ XL offers a flask capacity that far exceeds that of most benchtop models. With a large 18 x 18 In. platform and a powerful, beltless motor drive, the Orbi-Shaker™ XL is capable of mixing up to five 2 L flasks or nine 1 L flasks simultaneously. The included, non-slip rubber mat platform is ideal for low-speed applications, while the convenient MAGic Clamp™ platform is also available for high-speed mixing of Erlenmeyer flasks, tube racks, or microplates. The MAGic Clamp™ allows for instant flask clamp exchange without the use of tools, screws, or any other hardware.

A remote control is included to allow for setting adjustments of time or mixing speed without opening the door and disrupting the CO₂ environment. The remote module can be stored outside of the chamber and connects to the shaker via a flat (1 mm thickness) cable, that easily passes through a port underneath the incubator door without compromising the seal. The remote module is magnetically attached to the side of the incubator.

• Six-side direct heating for excellent uniformity and recovery
• Integral, MAGic Clamp™ orbital shaker, ideal for suspension cell culture
• Dual Beam IR sensor, for precise CO₂ control
• Stackable design with a belt-less motor that limits vibration and provides a smooth, consistent shaking motion
• Stainless steel chamber with rounded corners for easy cleaning

Ideal for the culturing of non-adherent cells, the Incu-Shaker™ CO₂ Mini combines a precision CO₂ incubation chamber with an integral orbital shaker, providing the optimum conditions for suspension cell culture.

With our unique and proprietary heat distribution technology, the incubator provides the highest levels of temperature accuracy with minimal fluctuation (within 0.1°C). The six-side heating system in combination with a low-speed internal fan uniformly spreads air throughout the stainless steel chamber (without air exchange from the external environment). For applications requiring solely gravity convection, this internal fan can be disabled, significantly reducing the concern of sample-to-sample contamination.
