CO2 Resistant Shakers
Simple, flexible, and reliable
CO2 resistant shakers
Use your existing CO2 incubator to investigate suspension culture and scale-up. Save space and achieve reliable around-the-clock operation with CO2 resistant shakers ideally suited to maximize cell health within your existing CO2 incubator.
Reliability
Sealed electronics and proven mechanism technologies provide minimal heat dissipation to ensure conditions within the CO2 chamber are not affected, and cells can thrive.
Simplicity
CO2 resistant shakers can be easily removed from the incubator to facilitate cleaning and disinfection, protecting your cultures from unwanted contamination, providing ease of use for multi-tasking cell culture labs.
Flexibility
Flexibility allows it to go from the CO2 incubator to the benchtop to the microbiological incubator for culturing mammalian suspension cells, insect cells, bacteria, fungi or other cell types for maximum value and versatility.

CO2 Resistant Shaker brochure
Trust your cell cultures to a proven, reliable solution
Our CO2 resistant orbital shakers provide reliable around-the-clock operation ideally suited to keep your cells flourishing within your working environment.
Smart Note: CO2 resistant shaker vs dedicated incubated CO2 shaker
Compared to a dedicated CO2 shaking incubator, our CO2 resistant shaker offers culturing flexibility, reliability, and ease of use for multi-tasking cell culture labs. Unlike a combined shaking incubator, a CO2 resistant shaker can be easily removed from the incubator to facilitate cleaning and disinfection, protecting your cultures from unwanted contamination.
