65 Sterilisation of Small Instruments within Seconds


The schuett solaris combines the latest technology. The instrument is electrical so gas is not needed and there is no open flame. It is instantly read-to-use so no warm up time is required.


Fast and safe sterilisation is attained with a temperature range from 900 – 1,300°C. It has a touch-free start with IR-sensor and a timer for reproducible working cycles (5 and 7 seconds). The integrated quartz tube keeps pathogenic material from spreading.


The schuett solaris provides economical, low-cost operation. There is no energy consumption between work cycles and heat is generated only during the actual sterilisation process, even when used in continuous mode, so no risk of burns if the surface is touched by hand.


Further advantages when working in the laminar flow include: low heat emission does not interfere with the laminar air flow; no soot is emitted and therefore the function of the HEPA-filters remains unimpaired.

A Safety Guide for using Laboratory Heating Blocks


Asynt in conjunction with the Department of Chemistry, University of St Andrews and Advanced Chemical Safety Inc (USA) have produced an 8-page illustrated document to provide laboratory staff with an In Best Practice Guide to safe use of heating block systems.


Heating blocks provide a safe, convenient and productive alternative to heating mantles and oil baths for heating round bottomed flasks, tubes and vials. Used in combination with a standard hotplate stirrer - heating blocks such as the Asynt DrySyn range have proved themselves with their ability to outperform the heat-conducting properties of oil baths. They pose a far lower fire risk and their use makes the clean-up of glassware far easier as there is no residual oil contamination on the outside of the flasks. In addition to accelerating your chemical reactions - heating blocks ensure a safer, cleaner, healthier working environment. Drawing upon the expertise and experience of Asynt and independent chemistry experts the illustrated In Best Practice Guide leads you through glassware inspection, setting up your reaction, heating your reaction and the post-reaction cool down phase.

63 Compact Class II Safety Cabinets Supplied to Biomedical Science Research Facility


A complete package comprising 63 cabinets developed by Telstar has been delivered to the new Biomedical Science Research Facility at the National University of Ireland in Galway (NUI Galway). The activities of NUI Galway’s Biomedical Science Research Facility are specifically directed towards cancer research, regenerative medicine and glycosciences. The cabinets provided by Telstar have been designed considering specific bioprocessing applications in the medical and clinical research field.


The suite of cabinets provided by Telstar represent a new generation of innovative biological safety cabinets designed to work in research environments such as tissue culture suites, radiochemistry, flow cytometry, screening core, sample preparation and biomimic areas. The cabinets developed by Telstar for NUI Galway’s Biomedical Science Research Facility are more compact and optimise the usable work area in laboratories with limited space. The cabinet design offers a body 20% smaller than the market average while maintaining standard work space. Intended for the laminar flow manipulation of microorganisms with biological risk levels 2 and 3, the new range of Telstar safety cabinets offers an ergonomic design that adapts easily to small spaces, especially in laboratories with low ceilings and where several pieces of equipment need to be used in the same area.


Of the total of cabinets designed by Telstar, 57 of them correspond to Telstar Bio II Advance range, the class II cabinet designed in accordance EN12469 standard, and 6 units of EF B range of class II B2 cabinets in accordance with NSF49 standard.
