There are many different types of bioreactors available in the market today for adherent cell culture. Choosing the right bioreactor system for cells is crucial for cell culture success. The choice of the bioreactor system to use highly depends on the type of cells to be produced, the desired product, the process of cell culture, and the product density. Esco Healthcare offers different types of bioreactors for different types of adherent cells.

CelXrocker® Laboratory Rocker

Your Benchtop Versatile Cell Culture Rocker

The CelXrocker provides gentle side to side rocking motion for mixing in culture flasks, tubes, and dishes. The laboratory rocker is designed to conveniently fit in most CO2 incubators and refrigerators thereby set-up or assay can be placed in a controlled environment. In a small scale, this lab rocker equipment is suitable for mimicking Tide Motion principle of alternating exposure of cells in macrocarriers to media and air. Operation of the rocker is adjustable in terms of speed, top and bottom delay, and tilt angle through a touch screen and user-friendly control box.

Tide Motion in CelXrocker®

Tide Technology Features

Features

  • Non-slip platform surface

    - items on top of the surface of the lab rocker remain in place while rocking

  • Timed or untimed operation

    - gives the user control over monitoring of mixing period

  • Adjustable tilt angle

    - adjustments are possible to further prevent slipping of flask or tubes, wetting and spilling of flasks, and accommodate different mixing patterns

  • Adjustable top and bottom delay

    - Tide Motion principle can be employed through timed delays at the end of each tilt

  • Adjustable rocking speed

    - adjust speed according to desired mixing and to mimic speed for tide motion

  • Manipulation through control box

    - allows monitoring and adjustments without disturbing the lab rocker, thereby setup can be placed in a controlled environment.

Applications

  • Tide motion testing of BioNOC™ II carriers (proof-of-concept)
  • Small-scale cell culture using macrocarriers
  • Assays requiring side-to-side rocking mechanism
  • Blotting, hybridization, staining, and destaining

Frequently Asked Questions

How Does It Work?

Non-treated cell culture flasks can be used for suspension culture of non-adherent cells to be used with the CelXrocker lab rocker.
Is it possible to use this benchtop rocker in cold rooms or incubators?
Yes, set the experiment time of the CelXrocker to 00:00 and it will run indefinitely until stopped.
The lab rocker can handle up to 13 kg (28.6 lbs), useful for handling heavy cell culture vessels.
The total working hour lifespan of the lab rocker motor is 8000 hours.
If motor time reaches 0, a warning screen will pop up. The motor will still continue the program run. However, the pop up on screen cannot be removed until the motor is changed.
