VACUSIP - Benchtop Aspiration System Flyer

Aspiration of supernatants after centrifugation steps and removal of washing solutions from microtiter plates are examples of common laboratory applications.

Until now, liquid waste disposal has been mainly accomplished by self-made systems consisting of a trap flask, a rudimentary aspiration tool and an external vacuum source. However, there are major limitations in convenience, safety and efficiency with these systems. The different parts need to be assembled individually, the handling is cumbersome and the risk of contaminating the house vacuum system is considerable.
