Liven up your lab this spring.<\/h2>\n

Spring is the time for new beginnings. The leaves pop and the flowers blossom and becomes alive again. It\u2019s the best time to liven up your lab, too. Do you spring clean your lab every year? Are you working with old lab equipment? It\u2019s an ideal time to check all equipment as well and replace what is old. Replacing old lab equipment can give you more efficiency. Upgrading to a newer model can save you time and money, especially if your equipment is not working as it should. It might even me using more energy than newer models. And, you may be able to get some new features on newer models that weren\u2019t available before.<\/p>\n

Not sure what you should replace first? These four products can help to make your lab more efficient and safer than if you are using older equipment.<\/p>\n

Balances<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With a variety of balances, how do you choose? Here is a quick run down of the types:<\/p>\n

\u2013 Analytical balances<\/a> are precise balances with readability to .01g (5 decimal places) making them ideal for universities, pharmaceutical, and high-precision manufacturing applications.
\n\u2013 Toploading balances<\/a> are used primarily for weighing solid material when an accuracy of 0.1 g is satisfactory.
\n\u2013 A moisture balance is perfect for measuring moisture in most products including grains, pharmaceuticals, soils, sludge and chemicals. \u2013 \u2013 Mechanical balances are traditional balances that are typically used in the classroom as they can stand up to student use and be used to weigh a variety of items.
\n\u2013 Micro balances<\/a> are used in a wide array of applications where small levels in weight variation can make a big difference in product testing and quality assurance labs to ensure that exacting production standards are being met.<\/p>\n

Lab incubators<\/h2>\n

Incubato<\/a>rs<\/a> provide a controlled, protective setting for cell, tissue cultures and others samples that require a contamination-free\u00a0contained environment. You can find a variety of lab incubators from general purpose and refrigerated to BOD and shaking. Many are equipped with see-through doors to view the entire chamber without opening the door and affecting temperature stability. Check out these models.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u2013 Gravity Convection<\/a> allows heat to fill the chamber naturally, providing a lower chance of cross contamination between samples.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n

\u2013 Mechanical convection<\/a> offers faster heat up and better temperature uniformity and recovery due to the constant circulation of forced air.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Mini CO2 Digital Incubator<\/a> The mini digital temperature and CO2<\/sub>\u00a0control incubators are only 13 inches wide, small enough to fit in most biological safety cabinets, conserving valuable bench space.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
