Incubator Shaker

Multitron

Minimize interruptions and ensure optimal productivity at every step of your bioprocess

The Multitron incubator shaker is an application-oriented shaker, configured specifically for your cell culture or microbial process conditions.

Advantages

Large capacity for parallel processing

Parallel processing in optimal growth conditions, handling screening and production in tandem. Compact design with large internal capacity, a triple stacked system has ample capacity that can be used to cultivate 63 L or 23,000 experiments in parallel in less than a square meter of space.

Reliable and reproducible results

Maintain a reliable environment for your cells with reproducible results across all trays due to the high-degree of temperature uniformity, and precision during your uninterrupted 24/7 operation.

Easy to clean and mitigate risks

Designed with reducing lab contamination in mind, the Multitron Incubator Shaker has rounded corners that make interior cleaning easy. The bottom well is accessible for cleaning and the optional UV emission source in the air flow path provides additional safety.

Experience parallel processing

What if there was a single incubator shaker that could handle both screening and production at the same time with a configuration tailored to your needs, increasing your process development speeds and reducing your time to market

Worried about lab space?

The Multitron incubator shaker, compared to its competitors, has an ideal working height of 140 cm on the upper unit and ensures easy access to the user. Even with the door opened, the maximum height reaches 180 cm, taking up minimal lab space. 


Shaker Accessory - Available only in the U.S. and Europe

Water for Incubators

After years of feedback and study, INFORS HT has developed Water for Incubators. It is double distilled, 0.1µm filter sterilized, has a pH of 7-9 with a conductivity of 1-20 µS/cm, and is terminal sterilized. The water formulation removes certain divalent ions and raises the pH to fight off waterborne bacteria and fungi to provide a sterile culture environment.

Optimizing HEK293 cell cultures for gene therapy applications: the role of incubator flexibility

Gene therapy is a promising approach for treating various genetic disorders and diseases. A critical component of gene therapy is the production of viral vectors, which serve as delivery vehicles for therapeutic genes. Human Embryonic Kidney 293 (HEK293) cells have become a widely used platform for viral vector production due to their efficiency in transfection and ability to support viral replication. However, optimizing HEK293 cell cultures for large-scale production of viral vectors remains a challenge in making gene therapies more accessible and cost-effective.
