Create custom atmospheres for microbiological culturing in seconds

The growth of anaerobic micro-organisms is critical to scientists in the fields of public health, pharmaceutical research, water quality monitoring and the food and beverage industries.

Traditionally this work is extremely time consuming and requires high capital outlay and/or very high consumable costs.

Anavac is a new system for the generation of atmospheres suitable for the culturing of anaerobic, microaerophilic and capnophilic bacteria in common anaerobic jars. Based on the long established and greatly superior methodology of Fildes and MacIntosh, carefully controlled vacuum evacuation of the original gas, and replacement with oxygen free gas, produces critical improvements over traditional techniques.

Anavac provides:

• Extremely rapid oxygen depletion (anaerobic atmosphere)
• Flexibility in the level of oxygen depletion (microaerophilic atmosphere)
• Multiple simultaneous atmospheres using multiple jars
• Cost and convenience without consumable requirements

A full technical paper explaining the benefits of the Anavac system is available now.
