Sentino® Microbiology Pump

 
Maximize Workspace and Minimize Contamination Risk

•    Compact design – Small footprint frees valuable benchtop space and provides flexibility in arranging workspace for optimal efficiency and workflow.
•    Minimal height – Allows convenient use in a hood fitted with a sash that can limit upward range of motion during routine analysis.
•    Disposable fluid path – Simple to load and completely disposable to eliminate potential biofilm build-up. There is no need to clean, wrap, and autoclave a bulky multi-place manifold. The potential for sporadic and unnecessary contamination is removed.
•    Peristaltic flow design – Pulls sample through the filter and fluid path eliminating the need for a vacuum source. Also ensures the fluid flows in one direction without the potential for back-up and contamination of analysis.
•    Fixed filtration parameters – Meets the Membrane Filter (MF) Technique filtration parameters described in U.S. EPA, ISO, and ASTM standards. Fixed conditions also prevent changes to filtration parameters that may adversely affect colony recoveries and integrity of results.
•    Safety feature – Eliminates a fluid trap under the vacuum, preventing implosion accidents.
•    Easy to clean – Shape of unit and materials of construction are easy to wipe down with standard laboratory disinfectants.
•    Simple operation – Soft-touch keypad has simple on/off function and pulse features to control filtration. No complicated programming necessary to validate.

GeneFix is an easy to use DNA saliva collecting system that stabilizes DNA long term in 2ml saliva samples. The collection device is pre-filled and has a simple screw-on funnel for simple saliva delivery, directly into the non toxic stabilization buffer.

FluidX tubes, used mostly for automation, include a 1 and 2D barcode. 

The FluidX collection tube clearly indicates the volume of saliva required after which the funnel is removed and cap replaced. The unique funnel design prevents flow back, and the device is fully specified for sample transport and storage.

Features

• Economic, easy to use integrated DNA stabilization buffer
• Bar code on side; QR code on bottom
• Unique funnel design prevents spillages or buffer flow back

U-Pette Blood Collection Tube Dispenser

• For safe and efficient blood dispensing
• New ergonomic design for more control
• Minimizes aerosols, per CDC
• Reduces the risk of lab-aquired infections

Labcon’s U-Pette provides a quick and easy way to dispense blood into a test cassette without removing the cap from the collection tube. This greatly reduces the risk of infection due to aerosol exposure. U-Pette’s flexible sides allow for efficient and precise delivery of required sample amount, whether it’s one droplet or continuous flow dispensing. Labcon’s U-Pette fits all standard blood collection tubes and is ideal for use with many point of care analyzers such as the Abbott® i-Stat® Helena® Abrazo® and other POC Analyzers that requires the delivery of a sample to a test cartridge or cassette.

Compliant with the IVD Directive 98/79/EC and lot tested Endotoxin (Pyrogen) Free.
