Miltenyi gentleMACS Octo Dissociator with 2 Integrated Heaters for Automated Tissue Dissociation

The Miltenyi gentleMACS Octo Dissociator with 2 Heaters Unit 2 is a benchtop automated tissue dissociation instrument optimized for preparing single-cell suspensions from complex tissue samples. Designed to handle up to eight samples simultaneously, this system integrates two heating units to maintain precise, optimal temperatures for enhanced enzymatic tissue digestion, critical in molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing workflows.

Key technical specifications include:

• Rotational speed: 200 to 4000 RPM, supporting clockwise and counterclockwise motion for effective tissue disruption
• Rotational acceleration: 100 r/s² with a minimum torque of 150 mNm and overload protection across the speed range
• Sample volume range: 0.3 mL to 10 mL total, capable of processing 20 mg to 4000 mg tissue mass
• Sample labware compatibility: GentleMACS C Tubes and M Tubes (not included) designed for reproducible cell isolation
• Heating modules: 2 included, upgradable to 8, ensuring consistent enzymatic activity during dissociation
• User Interface: Intuitive controls with preset programs streamline operation for high-throughput workflows

This equipment is widely adopted in clinical diagnostics, immunology, and synthetic biology research for tissue dissociation, organoid preparation, and primary cell culture expansion. Its ability to deliver reproducible cell viability and enrich target cell populations makes it essential for gene editing, molecular cloning, and biomanufacturing pipelines.

Additional features enhancing lab integration:

• Compact, space-saving design suitable for biotechnology and biomedical engineering laboratories
• Safety shield included for user protection during operation
• Fully tested and serviced with warranty support for both parts and labor

The gentleMACS Octo Dissociator supports advanced tissue dissociation with temperature control, making it critical for downstream applications in neuroimaging, fluorescence analysis, and cell therapy research. Compatible consumables include gentleMACS C Tubes, M Tubes, and MACS SmartStrainers to ensure sample integrity.

Investing in this pre-owned instrument provides a cost-effective solution with professional servicing and technical consultation available, widely trusted by academic, clinical, and biopharma laboratories worldwide.
