Product news

Two powerful, yet easy-to-use products for controlling temperature during respirometry applications are now available from PolyScience. Ideal for use by researchers and others performing metabolic studies, biodegradation assessments, forensic evaluations, compost research, toxicity screening studies, and other anaerobic or aerobic research, the Model 210 Heated Circulator and Model 5206M Recirculating Chiller provide temperature control over a range as broad as -10° to +70°C (14° to 158°F).

Designed for use with anaerobic respirometers, the Model 210 Heated Circulator controls temperature from ambient to +70°C (158°F) with ±0.2°C (±0.4°F) stability. It has a 750 watt heater and a single speed centrifugal pump that delivers up to 11.4 liters/minute (3.0 gallons/minute) at 0.13 bar (2.0 PSI).

The Model 5206M Chiller is recommended use with aerobic respirometers. This ¼ HP chiller controls temperatures from -10° to 70°C (14° to 158°F) with ±0.1°C (±0.2°F) stability and a magnetic drive centrifugal pump that delivers up to 15.5 LPM (4.1 GPM) at 0.69 bar (10 PSI).

Refrigerators Freezers and CryogenicsRefrigerators, Freezers & Cryogenics can be used for preservation or experimental purposes. Types of freezers include deep freeze, -80C°C, ultra-low temperature, explosion proof, cryogenic and controlled rate freezers. Freezing is also used in freeze-drying equipment for dehydration processes. Feature to consider in freezers include temperature control and recorders, failure alarms and self-closing mechanisms.IncubatorsLaboratory incubators are used to provide a stable environment to cultivate and store samples in, giving you optimal control of temperature, humidity, oxygen and CO<sub>2</sub> levels. Incubators are necessary equipment for cell culture and microbial research. Control temperature with heated or refrigerated incubators, or the levels of CO<sub>2</sub> and oxygen with CO<sub>2</sub> incubators. Using environmental chambers, create a humid climate for testing samples. Find the best incubators in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Temperature ControlTemperature controlled processes are experiments carried out using ovens, furnaces, incubators, hotplates, refrigeration and freezers.MetabolomicsMetabolomics is the study of small metabolites (the intermediates and products of metabolism). It involves the identification and quantification of cellular metabolites using analytical technologies such as GC, HPLC, NMR, and LC/MS.Forensic ToxicologyForensic toxicology is used to determine cause of death, drug use and contaminations. Toxicological evaluations are commonly used in analytical chemistry, clinical, life sciences and forensics.
