The Capsule Magnetic Stirring Bar is a polystyrene capsule containing a 30 x 8mm (1.18 x 0.31") polygon magnetic stirring bar that spins freely inside the capsule while being prevented from spinning off center and ‘wandering’ on the base of a vessel.
- Containment of the stirring bar prevents it from impacting and damaging expensive pH probes during pH adjustments and from interfering and damaging gels during staining/destaining procedures
- Large, flat capsule keeps the stirring bar consistently centered on the bottom of vertical electrophoresis units (e.g. Hoefer’s) to efficiently mix the running buffer
- Use of the capsule prevents the stirring bar from being impeded by chemicals which, in water, transform into a sticky gel (e.g. albumin) and enables efficient dissolving
- After use, the capsule can be easily disassembled for cleaning
- Manufactured in a registered ISO 9001:2008 facility, as verified by SGS certification
- Autoclavable
