The Microplate shaker PMS-1000i is designed for immuno-diagnostics and is used for mixing biological liquids as well as incubation and cultivation of biological liquids according to the program set by the operator.
The principle of the PMS-1000i operation is based on the creation of the rotational movement of the Shaker platform with a constant amplitude. The rotational speed is controlled from the front panel.
The PMS-1000i microplate shaker provides reliable, regulated shaking for two or four microplates. With a speed range of 150 to 1000 rpm, the PMS-1000i can be adjusted to suit the application - gentle shaking to ensure that the well contents are not ejected, or more vigorous agitation for effective aeration across the small surface area of each of the wells.
Variable shaking speed: 150 to 1200 rpm
Direct drive mechanism and brushless motor
Set and display the speed (rpm)
Holds two or four microtitre plates
Quick and easy screw fitting of any standard-depth 96-well plated
Continuous or timed operation, with automatic switch off
Platform for two microtitre plates supplied as standard. Platform for four plates (MPP-4) available as an option
Easy-to-use integral electronic timer ensure accurate count-down and repeatability of time-sensitive incubations
Quick and easy to use screw fittings keep the plates securely in position and allow fitting on any standard-depth 96-well plated
Easy to read LED display clearly indicates time remaining on timed operations and speed in rpm
Simple graduated dial to adjust the speed to suit the application: - gentle shaking to ensure that the well contents remain in situ, or more vigorous agitation for effective aeration across the surface area of each well

Suitable for mixing, incubation and cultivation of biological and chemical components in many life science disciplines including microbiology, cell and molecular biology, immunology and biotechnology. Specific applications include: immunoassays, HTS applications, colouration tests, binding of template DNA to silica-coated magnetic beads.
The PMS-1000i avoids low signal caused by inadequate re-suspension of purified PCR products, which helps to ensure the correct optical density in each of the wells and helps to achieve maximum yield and quality in the production of plasmid DNA.
