Vortex Mixer The vortex mixer is a laboratory instrument that combines oscillation and vortex skillfully, and can be applied to a variety of mixing and vortex oscillation operations, making the experiment more convenient and faster. Development process: 1. Domestic general oscillator and vortex are separate, a machine can only deal with one operation, greatly limiting the experimental process, the current foreign mixing elf can solve this contradiction, it will be the oscillation and vortex cleverly combined into a machine. It can not only mix a variety of microtubes, PCR plates, deep-well plates and microplates and other commonly used laboratory supplies, but also has a Vortex oscillation mixing of various test tube functions, greatly facilitating the experimental process. However, it is not widely used due to its relatively high price. 2 Dimensional mixing: Recent research has found that rotational speed (rpm) is not the only determining factor for effective mixing of micro-volume samples. More often than not, perfect homogenization occurs when the speed, the mode of operation (e.g. rotation) and the radius of rotation are optimized. The mixing gizmo has perfectly integrated all influencing factors, i.e. 2-dimensional mixing control. The Vortex Mixer works with: ● Working plates ● 96-well PCR plates (skirted, half-height skirted, unskirted) ● 384-well PCR plates ● 96-well and 384-well deep-well plates ● MTP microplates, enzyme labeling plates ● Microcentrifuge tubes ● 0.2 ml PCR tubes, PCR rows ● 0.5 ml microtubes ● 1.5 ml microtubes ● 2.0 ml microtubes ● Vortex oscillating homogenization Various types of tubes Applications: Rapid controlled mixing homogenizes experimental conditions from well to well/tube to tube, thus improving reproducibility. ● PCR reaction system preparation ● Precipitation resuspension (e.g., bacterial, DNA, cell culture precipitates) ● Incubation (ELISA enzyme immunoassays) ● Protein staining quantification (e.g., Bradford, Lowry, BCA) ● Reporter gene analysis (e.g., β-galactosidase, luciferase assays) ● Pre-mixing of enzyme reactions ● Oscillatory mixing of various tube types Mix Smart Mixing Gizmo The standard configuration includes three types of tube holders: ● 96-well PCR plate/tube holder, suitable for 0.2 ml PCR tubes, PCR tubes, 96-well PCR plates (half-height skirt, no skirt) ● 0.5 ml tube holder ● 1.5/2.0 ml tube holder ● 96-well skirted PCR plates, 384-well PCR plates, microtiter plates, and deep-well plates, which can be directly put into the MixMate for mixing.
