Product description

The Ohaus Digital Vortex-Genie 2 SI-A296 is a precision laboratory vortex mixer designed for efficient reagent mixing, sample homogenization, and molecular biology sample preparation. Featuring a 3.5 mm orbit and a variable speed range of 500 to 2,850 rpm, this benchtop vortexer supports precise agitation necessary for biotechnology and clinical diagnostics workflows including DNA/RNA mixing and protein vortexing.

Key Technical Features:

  • Digital control panel with red LED display for speed and timer adjustment
  • Integrated countdown timer adjustable from 1 second to 99 minutes, facilitating reproducible mixing cycles critical in molecular diagnostics and PCR setup
  • Robust zinc-casted housing with anti-slip "no-walking feet" for stability in laboratory environments
  • Equipped with a 3-inch rubber-covered platform and pop-off cup accessory for versatile sample hold
  • Compatible with 230V, 0.5A, 50Hz power input, suitable for Australian laboratory power standards
  • Designed for hands-free or touch-on operation, allowing seamless integration in bioprocessing workflows
  • Cold room and incubator compatible, extending usability to enzyme reaction mixing under controlled temperature conditions
  • Special attachment available for half-skirted and unskirted PCR plates, making it ideal for synthetic biology and gene editing applications

This digital vortex mixer is widely used in biotechnology, molecular cloning, and live-cell imaging laboratories due to its precise speed control and compatibility with standard PCR plates. It is an essential instrument for molecular biology researchers requiring consistent sample emulsification, suspension preparation, and enzyme reaction mixing during biomanufacturing processes. The device’s CE certification underscores compliance with safety standards, ensuring reliable and secure operation.

Suitable for applications in:

  • Molecular diagnostics and PCR setup

Why Questpair exists

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.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
