FAQ for Microplate Shaker Incubator NMSI-100
1: Does this Microplate Shaker Incubator NMSI-100 offer precise temperature control?
Yes, the Microplate Shaker Incubator offers precise temperature control with an accuracy of ±0.1°C. It ensures stable and reliable heating with a temperature stability of ±0.2°C at 37°C, making it perfect for sensitive experiments.
2: How does the shaking motion work in the Microplate Shaker Incubator?
The Microplate Shaker Incubator uses a horizontal shaking motion with a 3 mm orbit, providing smooth and uniform agitation. This gentle motion ensures your samples are thoroughly mixed without causing damage, making it suitable for delicate biological or chemical assays.
3: What kind of heating system does the Microplate Shaker Incubator NMSI-100 use?
It features a dual-sided heating system that ensures uniform heating across all wells of the microplate. This design helps maintain consistent temperature distribution, which is crucial for reliable experimental results.
4: How easy is it to monitor the temperature and shaking speed?
The Microplate Shaker Incubator is equipped with a clear LCD that allows you to easily monitor the temperature, time, and shaking speed in real time. This intuitive interface makes it simple to adjust settings and track progress, giving you complete control over your experiments.
5: Is this Microplate Shaker Incubator NMSI-100 easy to clean?
Yes, the Microplate Shaker Incubator is designed with a streamlined body that makes cleaning easy. Its smooth surface and simple structure allow you to wipe down the unit without hassle. Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and hygiene, particularly in labs working with sensitive samples.
6: Does the Microplate Shaker Incubator offer consistent mixing across all samples?
Yes, the Microplate Shaker Incubator provides uniform mixing with controlled, consistent agitation across all wells. This eliminates sample variation due to uneven shaking, which is critical for accuracy in high-throughput experiments. The shaker operates smoothly, minimizing cross-contamination and edge effects.
7: Is the Microplate Shaker Incubator noisy during operation?
No, the Microplate Shaker Incubator operates quietly, thanks to its advanced motor and anti-vibration design. It is ideal for shared lab environments where noise can be disruptive. You can comfortably run the unit without disturbing other activities in the lab.
8: Can I monitor the parameters during operation?
Yes, the Microplate Shaker Incubator is equipped with a digital display that shows real-time data on temperature, shaking speed, and run time. This allows you to monitor your experiment without opening the chamber or interrupting the process.
9: What makes this different from using a separate incubator and shaker?
This integrated design saves space, power, and time by combining two functions into one efficient unit. It reduces the need for transferring plates between devices, which minimizes contamination risks and experimental error. Plus, synchronization of shaking and temperature improves workflow and reproducibility.
