Thermo Fisher Scientific Introduces Revolutionary Device for Effective,
Long-Lasting Prevention of Waterborne Contamination
|
Thermo Scientific AquaTec water preservation cell for improved sample
protection
MILFORD, MA., (June 4, 2007) – Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world
leader in serving science, today introduced its new Thermo Scientific AquaTec™
water preservation cell, for the effective prevention of waterborne
contamination in CO2 incubators and water baths. Designed to provide worry-free
sample incubation and cell culture, the AquaTec provides up to six months of
protection from more than 600 types of bacteria, viruses, molds and fungi. The
Thermo Scientific AquaTec enables the prevention of microbes from water without
the use of harsh chemicals, making it safe to handle and requiring no special
disposal protocols. The AquaTec is designed and tested for all types of
laboratory water and is suitable for use in equipment from any manufacturer.
The Thermo Scientific AquaTec is applicable across a broad range of biological
research temperature environments. As a cost-effective tool, just one three-inch
AquaTec cell placed into the water reservoir provides long-lasting disinfection
without the need for mixing or measuring potentially hazardous materials. Self
regulation maintains the correct level of anti-microbial concentration
regardless of water level, negating the need for constant monitoring and
testing, or equipment dismantling, and saving valuable research time. Easy to
use, the AquaTec has optional suction cups for placement and fixation in the
water bath or incubator reservoir, and a convenient peel-off reminder calendar
that indicates when replacement is recommended.
