Growth media preparation is the cornerstone of any microbiology lab. Not having the media you need when you need it—because someone forgot to start a batch or one failed—creates a log jam that knocks everything off schedule for days. This is especially the case in food safety, monitoring, and quality assurance, where having the right media ready on time can make or break your safety testing workflow.

Reactant concentrations can be easily monitored and adjusted by simply controlling the input/output flow rates into/out of the reactor, which gives chemists greater accuracy when carrying out complex reactions. The stirring of solutions within the reactor also ensures that reactants remain evenly mixed, resulting in consistent products across different batches. Furthermore, since reactions occur in real time with CSTRs, their residence times are much shorter compared to batch processing methods...
Next month, Priorclave will be highlighting its new laboratory and research grade autoclave ranges on stand A71, Hall 2 at Analytica Lab Africa 2023. There are three new core research grade laboratory autoclave groups, each with several models and offering more features and benefits than previously available as standard.
