Two independent channels for all measurements!
Description
The C3010 and C3030 instruments are full parameter dual channel instruments. Each channel has it’s own
measurement hardware. All values can be displayed simultaneously on the screen. There is no interference between the channels
when measuring pH/ORP/ Ion and conductivity in the same solution!
2 sets of gold plated BNC connectors of which each accepts different electrodes, including conductivity electrodes. Gold plating
prevents corrosion of BNC connectors. Via an easy to use menu system, the device can be configured for your measurements.
A built-in help system will help you through all steps to use the instrument successfully.
Besides the pre-programmed pH buffers and EC standards, you can also add your own buffer and standard tables. Not just a certain
value at a certain temperature but the complete temperature related table of your specific buffer. Add up to 5 pH buffers and 3 EC
standards of your own choice and use them as if they are built-in.
Two temperature inputs are independent from measurement channels. ATC for each channel can be selected from any of the
temperature inputs. The device can be connected to a PC and completely controlled via USB/RS232.
Both software and communication protocol can be downloaded from our website.
Highlights
Multichannel up to 2 measurements can be performed at the same time and simultaneously or individually shown on the display.
Each channel can measure 2 times per second.
Custom calibration tables allows the user to add complete buffer/standard-temperature relation tables. With this feature the built-in
tables can be extended with your own tables. Tables can be entered via a device menu or uploaded from a PC.
Wide Display shows 2 channels at the same time including temperature and date/time.
Stability algorithm ensures stable readings with ability to detect fast changes.
Capacitive compensation eliminates the capacitive component of the electrode and cable when measuring low conductivities.
Galvanic isolated USB interface eliminates ground loop effects when connected to a PC.
GPL report can be shown on the display or sent to the digital port.

Measurement tips
Soil
Prepare the sample by combining a 10 g soil sample with distilled water (total volume should be 50 ml), mixing thoroughly, and
allowing the mixture to settle for 10 minutes. Carefully insert the pH electrode and allow readings the stabilise.
Ethanol
You need a pH electrode with a low resistance pH bulb, and the reference portion of the electrode should have a double junction
design with an outer chamber that is refillable.
Take a 10 ml aliquot of the regular 4 M KCl fill solution and dilute it to volume with the ethanol in a 100 ml volumetric flask. Use this
solution to fill the reference chamber of the electrode.
Ethanol solutions require the correct type of liquid junction, that is, one that is easily renewed and cleaned. An open liquid junction or
sleeve junction electrode is recommended. The proper functioning of the glass electrode depends on the hydration of the glass layer
which takes place on the surface of the pH sensitive glass membrane during soaking and measurement in aqueous solutions.
As long as the electrode is frequently rehydrated, accurate measurements in non-aqueous or partly aqueous solutions such as
ethanol are also possible. You are going to have dehydration of the pH bulb and reference junctions with the ethanol. You will have to
switch out the electrodes for rehydration every few days. This can be accomplished by soaking in a slightly acidic buffer such as pH 4
buffer.
The exact explanation for this paradox is sometimes elusive, but there are at least three possible reasons for its occurrence.
1. ORP sensors can show a slow response in environmental water if the platinum button of the probe has been contaminated with
extraneous material. Common contaminants include hard water deposits, oil/grease, or other organic matter. If the platinum
electrodes in the above example are variably contaminated, then some of them (the more contaminated) will be likely to approach
potentiometric equilibrium slower. Under this scenario, if left long enough all the sensors would read the same. However, it might
take days for the contaminated sensors to reach their final value, and, therefore, they appear in the time frame of a sampling
experiment (< 1 hour), to be different. Naturally, if the electrode contaminant is redox-active, either in itself or because it contains
redox-active impurities, the reading from that sensor will exhibit erroneous readings that may never change unless the
contaminant is removed.
2. In clean environmental water, there may be very few redox-active species present, and those that are present may be in very
low concentration. In many cases, the concentration can be so low that the redox influence of the species is effectively below the
detection limit of the method. Under these conditions, the readings will have questionable meaning and could show this type of
variation described above. Note that the ORP reading variance associated by this scenario is likely to be exacerbated if any of the
electrodes is also contaminated as described above.
3. The composition of the surface of the electrode may not be ideal for the measurement in the medium under investigation. While
“platinum” ORP electrodes are primarily composed of the metal itself (in a neutral state), it is well known that the surface of the
electrode (where the redox action takes place) is coated to varying extents with a molecular layer of platinum oxide (PtO). The
Pt/PtO ratio can change over time, depending on the medium in which the probe is stored, and thus the surface of the electrode
actually possesses its own potential that can be variable. If this surface potential is similar to the ORP potential of the medium,
then electrode response can be sluggish. The cleaning procedure recommended later in this document will result in a surface
characterized by a low Pt/PtO ratio and one that possesses a very positive potential. This should be suitable for most environ-
mental measurements.
The fact that similar or identical ORP sensors read differently in environmental water yet the same in Zobell solution is due to the
fact that the concentration of redox-active species (ferricyanide/ferrocyanide for Zobell) is much greater in the standards. This higher
concentration usually “swamps out” the inconsistencies related to detection limit problems (caused by low amounts of redox-active
species) and response time issues (caused by electrode contamination), thus all sensors respond rapidly and read within the
specification of ± 20 mV when in standards.

Description
R3600 controller series is based on the C3000 series measurement system and has as such the same functionality. This controller
adds 2 independent programmable control systems. All inputs, including temperature, can be used as input for the control system.
After an unexpected mains interrupt, the controller will automatically continue with it’s task.
The system has 4 programmable solid state relays and two 4-20mA analogue outputs. Various control modes and safety features are
provided.
Via a galvanic isolated RS485 interface it’s possible to connect up to 31 controllers with a computer. Both software and
communication protocol can be downloaded for free from our website.
A programmable alarm function prevents overdosing of chemicals in the process liquid. Each time a pre-set level is exceeded the
corresponding relay is closed and an alarm timer starts to count down. When the level is still exceeded after the count down, all relays
will be opened and an alarm is given.
R3614 and R3624 are versions with 1 extra DIN connector for 4-pole conductivity electrodes.
Highlights

Description
R3630 controller series is based on the C3xxx series measurement system and has the same functionality. This controller also can
measure free chlorine. The controller has 3 independent programmable control systems. All inputs, including temperature, can be
used as input for the control system. After an unexpected mains interrupt, the controller will automatically continue with it’s task.
The system can control up to 4 solid state relay outputs and 2 4-20mA analogue outputs. Various control modes and safety features
are provided.
Via a galvanic isolated RS485 interface it’s possible to connect up to 31 controllers with a computer. Both software and
communication protocol can be downloaded for free from our website.
A pre-programmable alarm function prevents overdosing of chemicals in the process liquid. Each time a pre-set level is exceeded the
corresponding relay is closed and an alarm timer starts to count down. When the level is still exceeded after the count down, all relays
will be opened and an alarm is given.
Highlights
Multichannel up to 2 measurements can be performed at the same time and simultaneous or individually displayed on the screen.
Measurement speed is 2Hz.
Custom calibration tables allows the user to add complete buffer/standard-temperature relation tables. With this feature the built-in
tables can be extended with your own tables. Tables can be entered via a device menu or uploaded from a PC.
LCD Display shows 2 channels at the same time including temperature and date/time.
Stability indicator algorithm ensures stable reading and visualisation of when measurement stabilised.
Selectable resolution for more stable readings for mV, pH and DO.
Capacitive compensation eliminates the capacitive component of the electrode and cable at low conductivity measurements.
Galvanic isolated RS485 interface eliminates ground loop effects when connected to a PC.
Safety Features:
- Stop the control (relays off) without stopping the measurements
- Automatic resume
- Washing program
- Programmable alarm

Electrodes
Electrodes
Overview
Consort offers a wide variety high quality electrochemical analytical sensors. Our pH, ORP (Oxidation-Reduction Potential),
Conductivity, Oxygen and Ion Selective Electrodes (ISEs) are designed for Laboratory, Industrial, Biotechnology and Medical
applications.
The most common electrodes are in our catalogue. We can supply variations depending on your needs: body style, submersible,
cable length, body length, connector type, ATC type,...
Most of our electrodes can be delivered from stock. ISE’s are never delivered from stock because of it’s limited shelf life. An ISE is
manufactured on demand and as such will guarantee an ideal shelf life combined with a low price.
Calibration solutions with values near the expected sample value should be chosen. Only fresh calibration solutions should be used.
Changing all solutions daily is a good practice. All solutions should be maintained at equal temperature.
Rinse the electrode twice between measurements: first thoroughly in distilled water and then with a small amount of the next sample
to be measured. Allow the electrodes sufficient time to stabilise while calibrating or measuring. A stability indicator on all of our meters
prompts the user when readings should be taken.
About B, N, T, X, Y
Our electrodes have different options indicated with a suffix. Here is an explanation of the different suffixes:
B 1m cable
1 BNC connection
N 1m cable
2 banana connections
Y S8 screw head for in-line use, screw connection (separate cable (SCxxB) needed)

pH Measurement FAQ
Why is a double junction electrode better than a single junction electrode?
A double junction electrode is less likely to become clogged because the second junction is located higher up in the probe out of contact with
the sample. It is also less sensitive to pollution as the first reference solution chamber is isolated from the measurement solution by means of
a second chamber that acts as a salt bridge.

About Horizontal Electrophoresis
Gel concentration
The range of fragment sizes to be separated will determine the choice of agarose concentration for a gel. Typical agarose concentration is
0.5% to 3.0%. For large DNA fragments low-percentage gels are required, while for small DNA fragments, high-percentage gels are
recommended. Weak gels (0.5% agarose) should be electrophoresed at low temperatures (e.g. -4°C). Agarose gels of 0.75% to 1.0%, for
routine electrophoresis, are recommended for a wide range of separations (0.15 to15 kb). 2…4% agarose gels are usually selected for PCR
fragment resolution. If the gel has to be subsequently photographed, thin gels (2 to 3 mm) with low-percentage agarose are better than thick
or high-percentage gels. The latter produce increased opaqueness and autofluorescence.
Electrophoresis buffer
TAE buffer provides optimal resolution of fragments >4 kb in length, while for 0.1 to 3 kb fragments, TBE buffer should be selected. TBE has
both a higher buffering capacity and lower conductivity than TAE and therefore should be used for high-voltage electrophoresis. Additionally,
TBE buffer generates less heat than TAE at an equivalent voltage and does not allow a significant pH drift. Note: because of its lower
buffering capacity, TAE should be circulated or mixed from time to time for full-length electrophoresis, especially at higher voltages.
Temperature influence
Electrophoresis at high voltages produces heat. Additionally, high-conductivity buffers such as TAE generate more heat than low-conductivity
buffers. Care should be taken in agarose gel electrophoresis with voltages greater than 175 V, as heat build up can generate gel artifacts
such as S-shaped migration fronts, and in extended electrophoresis runs, can even melt the agarose gel. With high voltage electrophoresis,
the use of low-melting-point agarose gels should be avoided.
RNA mobility
Either before or during electrophoresis, RNA should be denatured. For example, RNA fragments which have denatured with glyoxal and
dimethyl sulphoxide can be separated on neutral agarose gels, or RNA can be fractionated on agarose gels containing methylmercuric
hydroxide or formaldehyde. RNA samples usually require longer runs or buffers that are easily depleted, so it is necessary to circulate the
buffer. Northern analyses should not normally be run on a mini gel tank.
Separation performance
Gel concentration, running buffer, voltage, temperature, conformation, and the presence of ethidium bromide all affect separation results. To
establish progress of double-stranded DNA, ethidium bromide (0.5 µg/ml) is often added to running buffer. The dye’s fluorescence properties
allows the band to be visualised under a UV lamp. However, ethidium bromide may slow the DNA migration rate by approx. 15%. As an
alternative, after electrophoresis, the gel may be stained in an ethidium bromide solution (0.5 µg/ml H20) for 15 to 60 minutes and then
viewed or photographed on a UV trans-illuminator.
Enhancing resolution
2 x TAE buffer can be used in units with low buffer volume to enhance resolution during extended runs.

About Electrophoresis Power Supplies
Relation between Voltage, Current, Power and Resistance
Ohms law: Resistance (Ohm) = Voltage (V) / Current (A)
Resistance is, in a certain environment (temperature, humidity,…) constant. This means that current follows voltage variations and
visa versa. It is impossible to force a power supply to deliver a certain current AND a certain voltage.
The resistance of an electrophoresis unit depends on its size, gel thickness, amount of buffer, buffer conductivity and temperature.
This resistance will normally decrease in time due to a slowly increasing temperature. Electrophoresis units which have a resistance
below the minimum load resistance of a power supply will trigger an alarm! Read the output voltage and current during a run to
measure the resistance and use above formula to calculate the value.
This means that the total power depends on both voltage and current. But since current depends on resistance it's impossible to force
to generate a certain power. The only thing that can be done is limit the power supply to generate a certain power.
Constant voltage

FAQ
Why are my output values different from those of a similar experiment?
Either your programmed parameters are not equal to those described or the resistance of your electrophoresis unit is different (see
above). It cannot be due to e.g. an other model of power supply as the relations between Voltage, Current, Power and Resistance are
monitored in the same way by any instrument (the electrical laws cannot be disregarded!).
What about connecting more than one unit to the same power supply?
The outlets being in parallel each electrophoresis unit will be supplied with exactly the same voltage. However, current and power may
differ due to differences between them even when exactly the same model, gel, buffers, etc… are used. Therefore, it is recommended
to run several electrophoresis units only in the constant voltage mode on the same power supply.

About Vertical Electrophoresis
Preventing leaking gels
The two most important things to be aware of when casting gels using the caster systems are:
• that the glass plates have been inserted into the casting or gel running module on a flat surface.
• that the spacers are flush with the bottom edges of the glass plates.
Perfect alignment of spacers can be guaranteed using the new glass plates with bonded spacers.
Avoiding over-tightening
Over-tightening the cam pins on the casting systems is a common cause of problems when using these units. Cams should only be tightened
just until appreciable pressure is felt.
Enhance transfer
If the gel blot sandwich is too thick, this may bow the cassette causing loss of contact between gel and membrane resulting in poor transfer.
The thickness of the blot can be lessened by removing the fibre pad on the non-membrane side of the blot.
Overview
Low cost
Easy to use
Leak proof “Plug and Go” casting dams allow gels to be rapidly cast externally while the tank remains in use for electrophoresis.

EHCA1200 Applicators Cellogel cellulose acetate system
Description
Unlike dry cellulose acetate strips that are restricted to low volume micro tests, Cellogel’s greater thickness allows tests to be
performed on semi-micro and macro scales using a wide range of specialist applicators. Consequently greater sample-volumes may
be loaded as larger, but finer bands over a wider front. This reduces sample saturation and aids densitometric band quantitation,
thereby improving resolution.

EHCA1200 kits Cellogel cellulose acetate system
Immunofixation EHCA1200-KC09-2
The EHCA1200-KC09-2 kit is intended for the separation and identification of monoclonal gammapathies. When a monoclonal
band is revealed by electrophoresis or when an immunoproliferative disorder is suspected, immunofixation of monoclonal com-
ponents is basic, either to establish true monoclonality of a band, or to establish the nature of the monoclonal component and
fix it. In fact different types have different diagnostic and prognostic value.
Assessment:
6 semimicro tests or 8 micro tests on 6 Cellogel 5.7x14 cm strips placed on 6 bridges in two Cellogel chamber.
Not included: Destaining solution (475ml Methanol + 475ml H2O + 50ml Glacial Acetic Acid).
Hemoglobins EHCA1200-KC35
Electrophoresis of Hemoglobins is a simple laboratory technique for the rapid and accurate detection of abnormal conditions,
called hemoglobinopathies. It can reveal the possible existence of hemoglobinopathies in two ways, qualitatively, by indicating
the presence or absence of variant hemoglobins, and quantitatively, by making possible the measurement of hemoglobins by
densitometry.
The electrophoretic separation of hemoglobins is based on the electrical characteristic of the globin molecule which can be
negatively or positively charged depending on the amino acid sequence or composition of the polypeptide chains. Differences
in the electrostatic charge will produce differences in electrophoretic mobilities and, hence, separation of the various hemoglob-
ins.
Assessment:
4 semimicro per each Cellogel 5.7x14 cm strip.
12 semimicro tests per each Cellogel chamber.
Lipoproteins EHCA1200-KC42
The EHCA1200-KC42 kit is intended for clinical electrophoresis of serum Lipoproteins and evaluation of HDL (Alpha lipo), VLDL
(pre ß lipo), LDL (ß lipo) and Chylomicrons fractions.
Hyperlipoproteinemias may be categorized into 5 types according to Fredrickson et Al. by simple observation of electrophoretic
pattern, serum appearance and determination of values of Cholesterol and Tryglyceride.
Cellogel is widely used in the world for Lipoproteins testing. More than 20 scientific works have been published on international
magazines. Main advantage of Cellogel versus dry Cellulose Acetate or Agarose is the right porosity (Chylomicrons can not
penetrate or permeate Cellogel membrane), the suitable thickness of 250-300 microns and combination of both hydrophobic
and hydrophilic properties of gelatinized cellulose acetate.
Assessment:
4 semimicro per each Cellogel 5.7x14 cm strip.
12 semimicro tests per each Cellogel chamber.

EHCA1200 Cellogel Cellogel cellulose acetate system
Cellogel is ready for buffering and does not entrap air at the moment of immersion into the electrophoretic buffers.
In comparison with dry acetate, with a thickness from 120 to 160 microns, Cellogel is produced with thicknesses between 190µ up to 500µ
depending on what it is to be used for. The greater the thickness, greater is the volume of the specimen which can be deposited on it.
Furthermore, higher thickness corresponds, with the same voltage applied during electrophoresis and with the same ionic strength of the
buffer, to a higher passage of current measured in mA x strip.
With Cellogel there is the possibility to apply specimens with a volume of 0.9µl/9 mm (semimicro method) or of 2µl/18 mm (micro method)
without the sample spreading as would occur on a very thin dry acetate strip which tolerates micro applications of 0.25µl/4 mm well but lets
the semi-micro and macro deposits spread unacceptably. The application can be repeated two or three times on the same spot on Cellogel,
when necessary, as in the case of electrophoresis of isoenzymes and of biological liquids poor in proteins.
Dry acetate is limited to the migrations of 20 mm of miniaturised micro electrophoresis or at most of 30 mm with a quasi-semi-micro carried
out with stamp applicators and their relative dispocards. Cellogel, however, is suitable for standard migrations of semi-micro 35 mm serum
proteins, with 45 mm semi-micro with prolonged migrations or high resolution electrophoresis with 60-70 mm migrations or more.
HRE (high resolution electrophoresis) is only possible on Cellogel and not on dry acetates. HRE on Cellogel is much simpler and easier than
on agarose; the expensive systems for the circulation of cold water or Peltier control which are needed for all the commercial agarose gels
with a thickness of 500 microns are not required with Cellogel. HRE on Cellogel has a cost per test equal to a semi-micro test on acetate and
does not have the prohibitive costs of agarose which is only produced in kits of 10 or maximum 15 tests per film, which cannot be proposed
for the routine of large and medium size laboratories. With French agarose it is only possible to carry out 10 tests/hour, with American
agarose 15 tests/hour, while with Cellogel it is possible to perform up to 48 test/hour; furthermore HRE on agarose presents itself with
migrations containing a floating ß-lipoproteins fraction focused, sometimes, overlapped on a small monoclonal band. In practice, high
resolution on agarose is a time consuming system as well as being defective. Cellogel, like agarose, offers resolutions that depend on the
length of the migrations. Making a deposit of 0.9µl on a line 9 mm long and 1.5 mm wide (semi-micro deposit):
• After 35 mm movement of albumin the serum proteins migration shows 5-6 fractions
• After 50 mm it shows 7-9 fractions
• After 65 mm it shows 9-13 fractions
• After 110 mm it shows between 11 and 23 fractions
Chemically Cellogel is a film of water made of from 7-8% of solid cellulose acetate and 92-93% H2O of which 60-70% is constitution H2O
bound with hydrogen bridges, and 20-30% water for impregnation of the pores. The evaporation and water transport onto the membrane
during prolonged electrophoresis is better regulated, the evaporation of the constitution water bound by the hydrogen bridge is much slowed
down and this facilitates long migrations which are impossible on dry acetate. The porosity of Cellogel is predisposed for the main analysis,
that is electrophoresis of the serum proteins. Large molecules like pre-ß-lipoproteins and all the other serum proteins penetrate and migrate.
Only the chylomicrons do not penetrate or migrate and only leave a mark at the start point, the same occurs with immunocomplexes and
cryoglobulins when present; these marks which are analytically and diagnostically important, cannot be seen on the French agarose which
uses filtering applicators.
The predisposed porosity of Cellogel is decisive in avoiding spreading of samples at the moment of depositing and spreading of the fractions
with low mobility during migrations which can be lengthy. All in all the right porosity corrects the insufficiencies of other commercial cellulose
acetates membranes. To this must be added the better compatibility between Cellogel and serum proteins, including lipoproteins, that are
incompatible with agarose. The latter is, in fact, a film of water (99% H2O) totally hydrophilic, where the amphiphilic serum proteins with more
lipophilic characteristics remain floating on the surface even when the sample is deposited with applicators which cut the gel.
The superiority of Cellogel over agarose was recognised in numerous publications by important authors between 1963 and 1971. Thanks
to its amphiphilic properties (hydrophilic and lipophilic) Cellogel has optimal compatability with specimens as difficult and complex as serum
proteins, which are also amphiphilic. Cellogel is, therefore, the ideal support for electrophoresis of serum proteins, hemoglobins, lipoproteins,
isoenzymes, for all the immuno-electrophoretic techniques and for the search for antigens, antibodies and tumour markers (especially those
immunofixable with polyclonal antibodies).

Universal Densitometer Cellulose acetate system
TurboScan. The new generation of densitometers. Once again Biotec-Fischer is leading the way
in modern analysis technology with the digital analysis system TurboScan. No other system offers
comparable flexibility and comfort. The TurboScan translates users’ expectations of a densito
meter into reality. Non-essential gadgets have deliberately been left out. Functionality, reliability
and operator comfort are the maxims.
Universal use. In terms of flexibility, TurboScan puts all previous systems in the shade. It allows
you to create as many individually generated scan masks as you wish. You can also select as
many analysis methods as you wish. No other system offers so many options. In clinical work, for
example, you can use TurboScan for analysis in the following applications: serum protein elec-
trophoresis, lipo-protein electrophoresis, haemoglobin electrophoresis, Hb-A1 electrophoresis,
urine electrophoresis, CSF electrophoresis, Bence-Jones, iso-enzymes, iso-electric focusing,
multifractional electrophoresis, blots and lots more. It does not matter wether you carry out your
methods on dry or wet cellulose acetate strips, on agarose and on other gels or you work with
micro, semi-micro or macro application.
Digital image analys. technology for reliable results. TurboScan uses the latest digital image
analysis technology. The advantages to you are obvious: analysis only takes a fraction of the time and the results obtained are reliable with
excellent reproducibility. At the same time TurboScan is based on commercial hardware components. The advantage to you - you can use
existing PC hardware and save costs.
Perfect analysis. TurboScan has a very high analysis speed. An A4 page is scanned in only 15 seconds. For the standard template with 64
traces, this means an average scanning speed of of 0.23 seconds per separation. The high resolution guarantees reliable results with
excellent reproducibility. The analysis data are clearly presented on the colour monitor. The printout shows all the relevant data in a clear
form, starting with the image of separation, the graphs, then the laboratory and patient data through to the results in percentages and
absolute figures, the normal ranges and your comments.
Easy to operate. In most laboratories, lack of time is a major problem, so careful attention was paid to this aspect when developing the
TurboScan. Despite its flexibility and multiple options, it is therefore simple and comfortable to operate. Even under pressure, you will easily
find your way round the TurboScan and sources of error are greatly reduced.
The TurboScan software. The TurboScan software lies at the hart of the system. It reflects more than 30 years’ experience in this field
of electrophoresis analysis. TurboScan automatically recognizes the fractions and assignments present. Each individual separation is
automatically coded and every fraction outside the normal range is automatically identified optically. You merely have to look up the result
and interpret it. As a matter of course, TurboScan offers you a variety of correction possibilities. You can easily set or delete minimums,
correct the baseline, curves of graphs or the albumin factor. After any amendment, TurboScan naturally recalculates all the data for you.
With data processing connection. You can easily connect TurboScan to your DP unit via bi-directional RS-232 interface. This guarantees
data exchange between TurboScan and your DP equipment.

N 820.3 FT.40.18 Vacuum Pump
Description
The chemically-resistant series N 820.3 FT.40.18 diaphragm pump is a twin-head unit with an integrated KNF self-drying system.
There is a wide range of applications for this pump in laboratories, especially whenever clean vacuum is required and moist gases
must be pumped down. Examples include vacuum-drying of vacuum drying chambers (for drying or heat-treating substances and
components) or steam sterilizers for sterilizing instruments, vessels, filters and textiles.
Due to its high resistance to aggressive media, this pump can be used universally. The heart of these very compact pumps are KNF
structured diaphragms (PTFE-coated). These patented diaphragms were stress-optimized using the Finite Elements method.
As a result, we were able to make the pumps smaller while increasing the service life of the diaphragm.
The KNF self-drying system allows condensed liquid to be blown out of the pump heads at high speed during evacuation.
The vacuum in the recipient remains constant. The drying cycle can be adjusted to the requirements of the individual process using
three variables. After drying, the pump reaches a better vacuum and is able to evacuate significantly faster compared with pumps
without a drying system.

Description
BLooK is a remarkable blue light LED transilluminator for the detection of nucleic acids or protein under non-UV conditions. The wave-
length of the special blue LED lights is 470 nm (fig 1), hence no damage to your nucleic acids or protein. Also, since UV is not used,
there is no need for any special personal eye or skin protection. The blue LED lights are arranged under the viewing area (200 × 120
mm). An amber filter, on hinges, is lowered into position once your gel is mounted. The stained gel is now ready for viewing. This
instrument has a specially designed ergonomic 4° angle, so users can easily sit on a chair to see the experiment results.
BLooK is designed to view the gel after running electrophoresis on the gel stained with the Novel Juice, Novel Green, Novel Green
Plus, Nimble Juice or Nimble Juice R TYPE. Further, it is perfectly designed for OnePCR TM, OnePCR TM HiFi, OnePCR TM
HotStar, OnePCR TM Plus, OneMARK B, and OneMARK 100, which contains the fluorescent stain compatible with the blue light
wavelength. However, BLooK is not suitable for ethidium bromide.
