New Automated Petri Dish Filling System Evaluated by the Rennes Hospital
"We were surprised by the speed and efficiency of the APS One from AES Chemunex. APS One is very reliable and can achieve a complete culture media dispensing cycle without supervision, its high plates loading capacity makes it an ideal true walk away pouring system,” M. Gaudin, Bacteriology laboratory, CH Rennes stated
“We enjoyed its high filling rate. The double pump accessory makes this automated filler very interesting for high volumes: 10 litres of media in just 40 minutes without any need to reload the carousel with empty Petri dishes.”
Loading the columns of the carousel is very simple, low height to facilitate the implementation of stacks of Petri dishes. Another innovative aspect of the APS One is the pouring quality of the surfaces of Petri dishes, without any ‘wave’ effect.
Flexibility of use, clear menus, screen control makes it pleasant to use. The APS One provides clean work, minimising the risk of contamination of the machine thanks to smooth surfaces. The risk of contamination of sterile distributed media is extremely minimised s thank to the opening ‘plate by plate’ limited to 4 seconds per Petri dish when pouring.
There is also the possibility to pour bi-plates or high quality blood agar plates with the on-line blood addition kit and to change the distribution volume (for example) at any time of the operation is also very reassuring and practical.
Circle no. 206 Circle no. 207 Confidence in Quality with New Market-Leading Product Warranty
All Jenway chloride meters, colorimeters, flame photometers, hotplate/stirrers, conductivity meters, pH meters, dissolved oxygen meters and ion meters now come with a 3-year warranty. In addition, the guarantee on spare parts increases from six months to one year.
By extending the warranty period from two to three years on eight different product ranges, matching that offered on the company’s spectrophotometers, Jenway highlights the company’s commitment to producing high quality, highly reliable scientific and analytical instrumentation.
If an instrument should break down during the warranty period it will be repaired or, if necessary, replaced free of charge. Any repairs or spare parts fitted are also covered by a one-year warranty.
This move to substantially increase the warranty periods on Jenway’s extensive catalogue of chloride meters, colorimeters, flame photometers, hotplate/stirrers, conductivity meters, pH meters, dissolved oxygen meters and ion meters marks a significant initiative, setting these products apart in the marketplace.

Environmentally Friendly Ultra-low Temperature Freezer
Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc introduced the new Thermo Scientific TS586e -86°C freezer. As an environmentally friendly model, this CE-certified and WEEE directive-compliant freezer employs CFC-free and HRC-free hydrocarbon refrigerants. In addition, an industry leading low energy consumption of 10.7 KWH/day (at the -80°C setpoint) makes the TS586e an extremely energy-efficient option. Furthermore, with a sound level of less than 49 dB(A), convenient and quiet operation within the lab is achievable. Featuring a powerful refrigeration system with water-blown foam insulation, rapid cooling is provided, and fast response to door openings provides unmatched long-term performance. As a result, precious samples are maintained in a safe, reliable and precisely controlled ultra-low temperature environment.
To ensure that temperature levels are accurately maintained, the Thermo Scientific TS586e incorporates an intuitive user interface where temperature alarm setpoints are easily specified. Any deviations from these limits will incur an audible and visual alarm, ensuring that optimal conditions are maintained throughout.
Additional alarms alert users to factors that may influence freezer performance, including high ambient temperature, low voltage, performance deviation and low battery. An intuitive microprocessor control system offers comprehensive remote monitoring capabilities, incorporating an RS232 interface for the quick and easy download of data to a PC for further analysis. Additional user flexibility is provided with
the optional incorporation of a CO2 back-up system, chart recorder or water-cooled condenser. An ergonomically designed handle also ensures that minimal effort is required during freezer opening and closures, reducing the occurrence of repetitive strain injury.
