Analytical balance with 0.01 mg readability, 210g max capacity options, and draft shield for lab precision weighing.
The Mettler Toledo AG285 Analytical Balance is a high-precision laboratory weighing instrument designed for accurate measurement critical in biotechnology, molecular diagnostics, and analytical chemistry. It features selectable maximum capacities of 210g, 81g, and 41g, with corresponding readabilities of 0.1 mg and 0.01 mg, enabling users to perform precise measurements for microgram-level weighing tasks essential in gene editing and bioprocessing workflows.
Key specifications include:
The balance is equipped with a draft shield to protect samples from air currents and disturbances, making it suitable for sensitive applications such as fluorescence analysis and synthetic biology research. Its compact footprint (9 x 13 x 13 inches) fits into benchtop environments commonly found in clinical diagnostics and biotech laboratories.
The unit supports weighing outputs in grams and milligrams, facilitating easy integration into molecular cloning workflows, live-cell imaging sample preparations, and other precision measurement tasks. While the RS-232 interface is not included, the balance offers robust performance for standard laboratory weighing needs.
Included accessories:
This analytical balance is widely adopted in biotechnology research fields due to its high accuracy and reliability, making it an essential tool for molecular biology researchers, biomedical engineers, and quality assurance professionals in biopharmaceutical production pipelines.
Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.
We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.
We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.
With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.
Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.
Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.
Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.
We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
Tell us what you need and a scientist finds it for you, usually within the hour.
