A seed germinator is Tissue/Cell Culture equipment. Using Seed Germinators, varying atmospheric conditions can be created within the chambers without the need of going outside. Typically, these create an environment in which light, humidity and temperature are controlled to provide optimum conditions for the germination of seeds. They are made of double walled structure having [...]

Powder containment booths control the hazardous emission of powders, dust and vapor without risk to operator or the environment during powder dispensing or sampling processes. In the powder containment booths, down flow of HEPA filtered air prevents the airborne dust particulates form entering into the operator’s breathing zone and prevents the escape of harmful dust [...]

Fume Hood A fume hood is a ventilated enclosure containing gases, vapors and fumes which is used to control exposure of the hood user and lab occupants to hazardous or odorous chemicals and it also prevents their release into the laboratory. An exhaust fan that is situated on the top of the laboratory building pulls [...]

A specially constructed enclosed area, which is environmentally controlled with respect to airborne particulates, temperature, humidity, air pressure, air flow patterns, air motion, vibration, noise, viable (living) organisms, and lighting is defined as Clean Room. The purpose of the clean room air-conditioning system is to supply airflow in sufficient volume and cleanliness to support the [...]

Fan filter units are recommended in contamination control environments such as clean rooms as fan filter units are air cleaning equipments and supply purified air to the clean room of manufacturing industries such as electronic and crystal etc. Fan filter units are self-contained, motorized supply air modules those are equipped either HEPA or ULPA filters. [...]

Tissue/cell culture is a biological method of asexual propagation where a very small piece of tissue (shoot apex, leaf section, or even an individual cell) is excised (which is known as explants) and placed in sterile /aseptic culture in a test tube/petri dish/tissue culture container containing a special culture media. A tissue/cell culture is used [...]

Sterilization is a process that effectively kills or eliminates transmissible agents or microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria, viruses and prions from a surface, equipment, foods, medications, or biological culture medium. In the laboratories, the sterility is acquired by exposure of the object that is needed to be sterilized, to chemical or physical agent for a [...]

Colony counter is scientific equipment that is recommended in cell (tissue) culture laboratories for counting the bacterial or other microorganisms such as fungi, colonies in a culture growing on agar plate. Counting of colonies when done by a technician is very tedious and slow job, usually it gives incorrect values leading to errors in experiments. [...]

Lyophilization/freeze drying is a method of extracting the water from Biological samples, foods and other products so that foods or products remain stable and are easier to store and preserved at room temperature. Biological materials should be dried to stabilize them for storage, preservation and shipping. In many cases this drying can cause damage and some [...]

Ball mill works on impact principle that is size reduction is done by the impact. It contains a hollow cylinder shell that rotates around its axis and is partially filled with the balls. The ball mill may be operated in a batch or continuous fashion and wet or dry. In case of continuously operated ball mill, the material to be ground is fed from [...]
