Ohaus Vortex-Genie 2 Analog Vortex Mixer SI-0297, 230V, Australian Plug

The Ohaus Vortex-Genie 2 SI-0297 is a precision analog vortex mixer designed for effective sample homogenization and reagent mixing in biotechnology and molecular diagnostics laboratories. Key features include:

• Control & Display: Analog adjustment knob with dial markings enabling precise speed control between 600 and 2700 rpm, optimizing vortexing performance for sensitive applications like PCR setup and protein vortexing.
• Orbit & Operation: 4 mm orbit ensures vigorous sample agitation critical in enzyme reaction mixing, DNA/RNA mixing, and powder dissolution workflows. Supports universal voltages including 230V at 0.5A, 50Hz, with an Australian plug included.
• Construction & Design: Durable zinc-casted housing with “no-walking feet” design minimizes operational movement, ensuring stability during intense bioprocessing tasks. The 3-inch rubber-covered platform accommodates various sample containers including attachments for half-skirted and unskirted PCR plates, enhancing compatibility in synthetic biology protocols.
• Applications: Widely used in molecular cloning workflows, biopharmaceutical production pipelines, buffer preparation, suspension preparation, chemical agitation, and liquid emulsification. Its hands-free or touch-on control supports efficient workflow in clinical diagnostics and cell imaging preparation stages.
• Environmental & Safety Specs: Operates reliably in temperatures from 0°C to 38°C and up to 95% non-condensing humidity. Certified CE and ETL for laboratory safety compliance.
• Accessories Included: Comes with a pop-off cup and a 3-inch platform facilitating versatile vortexing needs essential in biomanufacturing and gene editing research.

This vortex mixer is a critical tool for researchers engaged in biotechnology, providing reliable and consistent mixing performance that supports complex molecular and cellular analysis techniques.
