Applikon Agitator for 1 L to 5 L Bioreactors M30 Thread 8 mm OD Shaft for Applikon

The Chemglass CLS-1380-05 Agitator is a specialized component designed for use with 1 L to 5 L bioreactors, providing a reliable and efficient means of mixing culture media. This agitator is a crucial part of a bioreactor system, responsible for ensuring the homogeneous distribution of nutrients, gases, and cells throughout the culture vessel. The component is compatible with Applikon and Broadley James bioreactors.

The agitator features an M30 thread, which provides a secure and leak-proof connection to the bioreactor's headplate. Its 8 mm outer diameter (OD) shaft has a total length of 220 mm, allowing it to extend into the culture medium for efficient mixing. This component is essential for supporting cell growth and fermentation processes by maintaining uniform distribution of nutrients, oxygen, and temperature within the bioreactor, while also preventing cell settling. The Chemglass agitator is a key tool for achieving optimal and reproducible results in various bioprocessing applications.

By providing a controlled and consistent mixing action, this Chemglass agitator is essential for maintaining optimal conditions for cell growth and product formation. It helps to prevent temperature gradients, reduce nutrient concentration gradients, and enhance gas transfer, all of which are critical for the success of bioprocessing applications.
