Digital Thermostatic Water Bath, 1 Chamber with 4 Openings, 12 L Capacity, 110V

A digital thermostatic water bath is a fundamental piece of laboratory equipment designed to provide precise and consistent temperature control for samples and solutions. It's crucial for experiments where maintaining a stable temperature is essential for accurate and reproducible results. Optimize your lab's precision with the Labnique Digital Thermostatic Water Bath.

Key Features

• Precise Temperature Control: Offers highly accurate temperature regulation (often within ±0.1 to ±0.5 °C) due to advanced digital controllers and sensors (like PT-100), ensuring consistent experimental conditions.
• Uniform Heating: Water's high specific heat capacity and, in some models, stirring or circulation mechanisms ensure even heat distribution throughout the bath, preventing hot spots and ensuring all samples are at the same temperature.
• Enhanced Safety: Provides a safer alternative to direct heating methods (like hot plates or open flames) for heating flammable or volatile substances, reducing the risk of fire or sample degradation.
• Durable Construction: Typically constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, ensuring robustness and a long service life with minimal maintenance.
• User-Friendly Digital Controls: Features a clear digital display for easy temperature monitoring and intuitive controls for setting and adjusting parameters. Many models also offer programmable settings and safety alarms.

Benefits

• Enhanced Reproducibility: Consistent and precise temperature control directly contributes to the reproducibility of experimental results, a critical aspect of scientific research and quality control.
• Gentle Heating: Ideal for sensitive biological and chemical samples that can be damaged by sudden temperature changes or harsh direct heating.
• Improved Sample Preparation: Allows for controlled dissolution, warming, or incubation of samples, which is often a critical preliminary step for downstream analyses.
• Streamlined Incubation Processes: Automates temperature maintenance for cell and microbial cultures, freeing up researcher time and ensuring optimal growth.
• Minimized Sample Degradation: Prevents overheating or localized scorching of samples, preserving their integrity for accurate analysis.

Applications

• Sample Incubation: Providing optimal growth conditions for cell cultures, bacterial cultures, and microorganisms.
• Enzyme Reactions: Maintaining specific temperatures for enzymatic reactions, crucial for studying enzyme kinetics and activity.
• Molecular Biology: Essential for techniques like DNA amplification (PCR), DNA hybridization, protein denaturation, and gel electrophoresis.
• Sample Thawing/Warming: Gradually bringing frozen biological or chemical reagents and samples to a usable temperature without damaging their integrity.
• Chemical Reactions: Controlling the temperature of various chemical reactions, especially in organic chemistry, where precise temperature is often critical for reaction rates and product formation.
• Sample Dissolution: Dissolving solids into liquids, particularly for substances that melt at low temperatures (e.g., waxes, gels).
• Stability Testing: Simulating specific temperature conditions to test the stability of pharmaceutical products, food products, or other materials over time.
• Material Testing: Evaluating the behavior and durability of materials under hot water conditions.
• Quality Control: Used for various quality assurance procedures where temperature-sensitive processes are involved.
