Scientific Industries SI-0286 Vortex Genie II Laboratory Vortex Mixer

The Scientific Industries SI-0286 Vortex Genie II is a laboratory vortex mixer designed for efficient mixing of samples in test tubes, microtubes, and 96-well microplates. Featuring a *continuously variable rotation speed* and selectable operation modes (*continuous or touch-start*), this vortex mixer provides smooth, spill-free agitation ideal for molecular biology, biotechnology, and clinical diagnostic workflows. Key technical features include:

• Variable speed control for precise sample mixing.
• Capability to mix uncapped test tubes smoothly without spills, essential for bioassays requiring sterile or delicate handling.
• Optional attachments expand use to microtubes and 96-well plate mixing, supporting high-throughput biotechnology applications such as bioprocessing and molecular diagnostics.
• Power requirements: AC 100 V, 50/60 Hz, 1.0 A; suitable for standard laboratory electrical systems.
• Compact footprint (12.2 cm width x 16.5 cm depth x 16.5 cm height) and 4.1 kg weight enable benchtop placement in limited laboratory space.

This unit is sold *used* and as-is; users should verify device performance before critical applications. Widely adopted for sample homogenization, cell suspension mixing, and reagent preparation, the Vortex Genie II supports essential workflows in synthetic biology and biomanufacturing research environments.
