MIDSCI introduces LabDoctor™ Mini Dry Bath



Unlike traditional dry baths, the MIDSCI LabDoctor™ Mini Dry Bath is ultra compact and fits in the palm of your hand.  Despite its small size, the MIDSCI LabDoctor™ Mini Dry Bath is capable of accommodating test tube sample sizes from 0.2ml up to 50ml and accurate temperature control (+/- 0.1°C) up to 80°C.


A convenient temperature adjustment touchpad is located along side the large backlit LCD display for adjustment of temperature. Six exchangeable blocks are available for applications requiring different tube sizes and a convenient block lifter is included for removing blocks from the unit, eliminating delays due to cool down time.


At just 4.4 inches wide and less than 4.5 inches tall, the MIDSCI LabDoctor™ Mini Dry Bath is a personal sized unit that will fit comfortably on any bench top.

Want a cleaner agarose product to reduce disposal of toxic wastes?

Bullseye Green Choice agarose -- a greener, earth friendly product.


Agarose, an item that almost every lab uses on a daily basis for standard electrophoresis applications as well as highly purified applications of DNA extraction and sequencing. So wouldn't you want an agarose that is cleaner and greener if you utilize it for nucleic acid analysis studies?


Most brands of agarose are manufactured with a drying process that involves harsh organic solvents. In comparison, the Bullseye Green Choice agarose does not involve these toxic solvents and has a longer air drying process thus providing the user with a cleaner and non-toxic product to dispose off after electrophoresis. The altered drying process has been shown to have zero effects on the high quality purification of the agarose as well as excellent performance in standard electrophoresis. 


What's there not to Like about our Bullseye Green Choice agarose? Give it a try and see for yourself.

Get rid of water contamination for good!

Have you ever wondered what grows in your lab water baths? Have you thought about how you can be cross contaminating your cell culture media bottles by warming them up in non-sterile water and bring that unwanted microbial growth to your tissue culture cells? Fear no more, Bath Armor Beads are here! 

Dry, metallic beads that replace water in water baths, aluminum blocks in dry baths, or ice in ice buckets. Bath Armor™ Beads are convenient, versatile, and can maintain hot or cold sample temperatures in just about any vessel type. These beads are not only sterile and unable to be contaminated by microorganisms, but also avoid the need of using harmful toxic agents to clean the water bath. Nothing is easier than placing your tissue culture media bottles or conical tubes into a bead bath that has uniform temperature for faster and efficient warming. Ice baths are a thing of the past; place the bead bag in the freezer and its ready to use and maintains cold temperature as efficiently as the warm temps. Out with the contaminated water, in with the beads!
