Laboratory Products 23 Eliminate Hazardous Chemical Fumes and Powders


Erlab’s Captair Smart ductless fi ltering fume hoods feature the most advanced molecular fi ltration technology available. Multiple chemical types can be adsorbed in one fi lter, so you are no longer limited to application-specifi c fi lters or the inability to adapt to new lab processes.


Included with each hood is Erlab’s expertise, safety, and service: a true analysis of the chemicals used in the hood (see how); a certifi cate of validation stating the fi lter type, fi lter life, and method of breakthrough detection; all hoods comply with the AFNOR NFX 15-211 fi ltration effi ciency standards (see how); a safety specialist to ensure your hood is running at optimal performance; extended warranty (see how).

Convenient Buffer Removal Ensures Safer COVID-19 ELISA Testing The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the


development of a number of novel RT-PCR based tests to detect the SARS-CoV-2 virus in patients. As the situation has progressed, there is now a need for serology tests to evaluate the immune response of patients, as well as to assess immunity in the general population. These immunoassays are critical to allow movement restrictions to be eased and prevent a second peak in infections.


Secure Sealing of SBS Format Tube Racks


Ziath has announced the launch of impression, a versatile new semi- automatic device designed to take the strain out of applying friction sealing mats or septum sealing caps to SBS format tube racks.


Tube racks are a valuable tool in life science research and clinical diagnostic testing laboratories as they can be used to simplify the handling and storage of large numbers of samples. It is essential that tube racks can be securely sealed in order to avoid contamination and evaporation thereby maintaining the integrity of your samples. The Ziath impressiOn sets a new industry leading benchmark for high integrity, cost effective sealing of single use SBS format tube racks.


Using the impressiOn is simple and quick, just place your rack or plate with its attendant friction mat or septum cap web in the drawer and push it fi rmly shut. Sealing is initiated using the single action large start button, then sophisticated electronics take over applying reproducible and even pressure every time to force the septum seals down into each tube. Time after time, impressiOn does the hard work for you. It’s sealing results are more reproducible, faster and less likely to cause a strain injury than trying to do this task manually.


The compact unit requires only a 110v or 220v power supply to operate and is small enough to sit on most lab benches. The Ziath impressiOn will work with most commercially available septum cap mats and different manufacturers 2D-coded and uncoded tubes in


SBS-format racks. Both friction and septum seals for 96-, 48- and 24-tube plates have been shown to work well using the ImpressiOn sealing device. As standard, the unit is also supplied with two rack adaptors to enable sealing of shallow and deep racks. Alternative rack adaptors are available to suit specifi c manufacturers’ tube racks.

Most serological tests are based on sandwich ELISA techniques to detect antibodies against the virus in patients that have recovered from COVID-19. The protocols for these ELISAs require several aspiration steps to remove buffers after incubation and washing, and the safest way to perform this is using an instrument such as Integra Biosciences’ VACUSIP portable aspiration system.


There are many advantages to using an aspiration system to remove buffers from samples, especially for 96 well plate formats, where there are multiple wells to process. These instruments enable safer, faster and more convenient waste removal than with a multichannel pipette, and the aspirated waste goes directly into the collection bottle, avoiding the risk of spillages or exposure to biohazardous waste, an important factor when handling infectious samples.


The compact design of the VACUSIP system means it can fi t on any bench or into any safety cabinet, offering the fl exibility to be used wherever needed. With a hydrophobic fi lter to protect against contamination, and a fully autoclavable liquid path for easy decontamination, the VACUSIP is the ideal aspiration system for laboratories working with SARS-CoV-2 samples.
