Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203 is an affordable, robust jar system designed for rapid generation an oxygen-free environment necessary to cultivate anaerobic, microaerophiles, and capnophiles microorganisms within a sealed jar. With excellent airtight performance, it aids in easy and exact, repeatable creation of desired environments for clinical and microbiology use. It is the most commonly used for anaerobiosis and is perfect for a laboratory having less sample load.
FAQ for Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203
1: What features make the Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203 user-friendly?
The Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203 includes a transparent lid and body for easy observation, a durable PMMA structure, and a secure clamp system, all contributing to simple operation and reliable performance.
2: What maintenance is required for the Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203?
Regular cleaning of the jar and lid, inspecting the O-ring for wear, and ensuring proper sealing before each use are essential maintenance steps to keep the Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203 functioning effectively.
3: Can the Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203 be used for organisms other than anaerobes?
Yes, the Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203 is versatile and supports the cultivation of microaerophilic and capnophilic organisms by allowing controlled adjustment of internal gas conditions.
4: Why is PMMA material used in the Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203?
The Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203 is made of PMMA, a transparent and impact-resistant material that provides durability and allows users to visually monitor cultures without disturbing internal conditions.
5: How many petri dishes can the Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203 hold at once?
The Anaerobic Jar System NAJS-203 can accommodate up to 18 petri dishes (90–100 mm in diameter), arranged in three stacks, making it efficient for processing multiple samples simultaneously.
6: How does the transparent construction of the Anaerobic Jar System improve usability?
The transparent PMMA body and lid enable clear visual monitoring of cultures throughout the incubation period without requiring the jar to be opened. This feature is especially useful for observing microbial growth while maintaining the anaerobic environment. It helps minimize disruptions, reduces the chance of contamination, and ensures reliable culture results.
7: What should I do if the Anaerobic Jar System fails to create or maintain anaerobic conditions?
Check that the lid is securely clamped and the O-ring is intact and properly positioned. Inspect for any leaks or damage to the jar and lid. Also, ensure the gas generation pack is appropriate for the jar size, correctly activated, and not expired. Proper maintenance and correct assembly are essential for optimal performance.
8: How does the electrostatic-coated lid enhance the durability and performance of the Anaerobic Jar System?
The electrostatic-coated lid provides strong resistance to corrosion and surface wear, enhancing its durability. This ensures the lid remains reliable and maintains a secure seal even after repeated use and cleaning in laboratory conditions.
9: Can the Anaerobic Jar System be used in both clinical laboratories and research institutes?
Yes, the Anaerobic Jar System is commonly used in clinical and microbiological laboratories, as well as research facilities, where precise control of oxygen-free conditions is essential. It provides a reliable and consistent environment for cultivating anaerobic and oxygen-sensitive microorganisms, making it a valuable tool for both routine diagnostics and scientific investigations.
