Compact design of media transfer system for exchanging cell culture media in petri dishes saves bench space and allows the unit to be used routinely inside a flow cabinet

Genetix announces QFresh, a compact media transfer system for exchanging cell culture media in petri dishes The QFresh takes only ten minutes to process a stack of 20 dishes, aspirating old media and replacing it with fresh media

The unique compact design of the QFresh saves valuable bench space and allows the unit to be used routinely inside a laminar flow cabinet for complete sterile operation.

Ideal for all tissue culture applications involving adherent mammalian cells or solid support culture of plant cells QFresh is easy to use and maintain.

It is compatible with all standard depth 10cm petri dishes or tissue culture dishes and has integral lid removal and replacement.

An intuitive keypad interface allows the user to simply select the aspirate and dispense volumes required.

If required a wash programme can be used to repeatedly aspirate and dispense into the same plate.

Designed for long term, contamination-free operation QFresh uses a proprietary pressure driven, pinch valve controlled dispensing mechanism to prevent liquid from entering the internal machinery.

The system includes a unique halogen sterilisation station that can reach temperatures of 400C ensuring complete sterility of aspirate and dispense nozzles.

All components that may come into contact with the liquid path are easy to dismantle, clean and autoclave. Request a free brochure from Genetix ...
