Choose an orbital shaker by temperature
Our orbital shakers offer a wide range of temperature capabilities to meet specific growth requirements from refrigerated models that go down to 4ºC to high-temperature units that go up to 80ºC for growth of thermophiles.
- Use on the benchtop in ambient conditions or in a refrigerator or warm room
- Place inside an incubator or environmental chamber
- 5°C above ambient to 80°C
- Incubate microorganisms or cells derived from tissue
- Use in life science, medical research or environmental science
- Ideal for production of DNA, RNA, proteins or antibodies
- 15°C below ambient to 80°C
- Use for temperature-induced procedures where ambient conditions are too warm to control with an incubated shaker
- Ideal for liquid cell cultures of insect, fish, bacteria or plant cells
