Controlled Mixing for Efficient Hybridization

An exclusive feature found on all SciGene hybridization incubators is the use of a rotator that holds the tubes tilted and offset from the axle. The geometry of the system results in movement of the probe solution from one end of the tube to the other as rotation occurs.

A Rotator for Short or Long Tubes

The rotator, when activated, moves at a fixed 6 RPM and is controlled with a three position switch (on, off, jog) that can be used to momentarily advance the rotator to add or remove tubes.

The standard rotator provided with the unit holds up to four long (300mm) or eight short (150mm) glass tubes. One complimentary 35x300mm glass tube with cap is provided with the system. Additional tubes are available separately. Priced at less than half of larger models, the Model 2000 oven is ideal for the budget minded laboratory.

For Light Use and Limited Budgets

The Model 2000 Hybridization Incubator [Cat. #1040-50-1 (115V); 1040-50-2 (230V)] is designed for laboratories that process a limited number of membranes, have limited space or budget or require multiple units operating at different temperatures. Ideal for crowded laboratories, the compact Model 2000 oven occupies less than 1.5 sq. ft. of bench space and can be stacked for additional space savings.

The Model 2000 hybridization oven uses a high energy heating element with a fan that brings the chamber to the desired temperature in minutes. The precision heat controller effectively regulates the temperature to ± 0.1°C and can be toggled to display either the set or actual temperature.
