Application scope

The Masticator lab blenders are used for homogenization during microbiological testing. Food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical labs like to use 400 ml Masticator blenders for homogenizing 10 to 40 g of previously diluted samples. 400 mL bags with and without filters can be used. The former can be used for pipetting debris-free homogenized liquid and are particularly recommended when homogenizations yield sample suspensions with high amounts of large-sized particles. Panoramic and Compact models allow for homogenization monitoring through windows located in their doors.

How to continue processing diluted samples

After dilution, sample-containing bags can be stored in Portabag bag holders pending homogenization in Masticator blenders. Once homogenized, the Eddy Jet 2W spiral plater is used to reduce the number of plates processed, offering a threefold decimal dilution counting range in a single plate. Following incubation, plates are automatically counted and fed with the Plate Handler or automatically counted and manually fed with the SphereFlash®.
