Bactron Anaerobic Chambers – Do away with jars!

9 Apr 2008

Product news

Camlab Ltd and Shellab are pleased to announce the introduction of the Bactron Anaerobic Chamber to the UK. Already an established technology in the United States, these units have recently been launched by Camlab and are already being used in a number of UK research facilities.

Anaerobic Glove Boxes have made a name for themselves over the last 15 or so years. As more and more labs realize the cost savings involved with moving from vacuum jars or bags, to anaerobic workstations they also begin realising the improvement in successful culturing and identification.

The Bactron Anaerobic Environmental chamber is designed to allow efficient and dexterous glove-free handling and inspection of samples. Modular systems within the chamber facilitate the completion of procedures from unpacking material to inoculation, incubation, inspection and recovery, all without a single exposure to oxygen.

Camlab is an independent supplier of laboratory equipment and consumables that has been supplying laboratories in the UK for over 50 years and has been supporting the full range of Shellab products into the UK for over 10 years. Now you can combine the help of the Bactron User group on http://www.shellab.com/bactron.html and the service expertise of Camlab.
