CO2 incubator shaker with 180°C sterilisation routine
Eppendorf’s CellXpert® CS220, is the first CO2 incubator shaker on the market equipped with an integrated 180°C sterilisation routine. This innovative solution is designed to enhance the production of complex recombinant proteins, viral vectors in mammalian cells, and bioreactor starter cultures, which typically rely on shake flask cultures.
Maria Mattern, who leads innovations in Eppendorf’s shaker and CO2 incubator portfolio, emphasised that the CellXpert® CS220 addresses the pressing need for improved contamination prevention in the industry. “Our new product was specifically developed to expedite mammalian shake flask culture
projects while adhering to higher contamination prevention standards,” she stated.
Unlike existing CO2 incubator shakers, which are primarily microbiological shakers with optional CO2 control, the CellXpert® CS220 has superior cleanability and sterilisation capabilities. “Most devices currently on the market fall short in addressing contamination risks, particularly viruses and Mycoplasma, which can significantly affect project timelines and budgets,” Mattern noted.
Manufactured in Hamburg, Germany, the CellXpert® CS220 is the first device to implement established contamination protection standards for CO2 incubator-based cell cultivation, featuring a 180°C sterilisation process. It simplifies disinfection thanks to its design, which eliminates drive wheels,
cover sheets, cables, and heating fins from the stainless-steel chamber. Additionally, the CellXpert® CS220 offers up to 40% higher flask capacity and
the highest platform size-to-footprint ratio available. More information online:

Smart, sustainable thermostats for precision temperature control
Lauda Dr. R. Wobser GmbH & Co. KG, global leader in precise temperature control, has unveiled its new Universa product line - an advanced range of bath and circulation thermostats designed for maximum flexibility, performance, connectivity, and sustainability in laboratory and industrial applications.
The Universa line includes three performance tiers - ECO, PRO, and MAX - with a modular design that allows users to combine different baths, control heads, and cooling units to suit their specific needs. Accessories are interchangeable across all models, and bore markings enable custom expansion.
Covering a broad temperature range from -90°C to +300°C, Universa systems offer stability to ±0.01 K, heating up to 3.6 kW, and cooling up to 1.6 kW. Designed for both internal and external applications, they enable fast heating/cooling for improved productivity, reproducibility, and process control across research, pharma, and industrial labs.
“Universa continues the legacy of our original universal thermostat from 1949, while pushing forward with the latest in digital and sustainable engineering,” said Managing Director Dr. Gunther Wobser.
Connectivity is central to the new range. All models feature USB, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi, allowing seamless integration into modern digital
labs. The Lauda Command app supports wireless control and monitoring, while optional interface modules - including OPC UA and EtherCAT - enable full IoT integration. Remote diagnostics and data logging are supported via
LAUDA.LIVE Services, with AI-assisted optimisation on the horizon.
Sustainability is another core focus. All Universa thermostats use natural refrigerants, each with a charge under 100 grams. Patented, inverter-controlled compressors minimise energy use during partial load operation and ensure quiet, efficient performance - even in entry-level models. A unique ventilation design protects electronics from oil vapours and condensation.
Backed by a 5-year premium warranty, Universa devices are CE- and NRTL-certified and available in international power variants - ready for global deployment.
“With Universa, we’re setting new standards in performance, flexibility, and environmental responsibility,” said Enrico Bossart, Head of Product Management. “It’s a complete solution for the temperature control demands of today and tomorrow.” More information online:
