Micro-Flask

An integrated, easy-to-use, and cost-effective technology
platform for the rapid handling and growth of large numbers of
microbial strains, clonal libraries, mutant banks, and cell lines
in 24 or 96-well microtiter plates.
The system enables a single person to grow and test thousands of
strains simultaneously with a minimum of repetitive handlings: all
handling is performed in parallel for sets of 24 or 96
strains.
More efficient use of your current orbital shaker: time savings up
to a factor 10 possible.
Same quality of growth as in Erlenmeyer flasks in terms of oxygen
transfer rates and reproducibility: See it for yourself; view the
technical data, photos and movies showing the hydrodynamics inside
the wells during orbital shaking.
