Hypoxic Workstations

Whitley H55 Hypoxystation

The Whitley H55, like our other Hypoxystations, provides the facility to mimic in vivo conditions, providing a continuous cell culture environment that eliminates cellular stress linked to variations in temperature, pH levels and oxidation, yielding better cell lines. This workstation has two airlocks and allows you to control O₂ in 0.1% increments up to 20%; CO₂ in 0.1% increments up to 15%; and relative humidity up to 80%. This provides flexibility in your research and confidence in your results.

The H55 has four oval, sleeved portholes and two airlocks (one on the left and one on the right). Two people can easily work side-by-side in this chamber, in the same environmental conditions.

A HEPA filtered version of the H55 is also available to provide levels of atmospheric cleanliness inside the workstation that exceed the requirements of ISO 14644 Class 3. All the atmosphere inside the chamber passes through the filter hundreds of times an hour, which ensure the chamber environment is cleaned quickly. The Enhanced Biological Containment system can also be specified. This option provides additional safeguards in reducing the possibility of bacteria contained inside workstations being released via the main chamber exhaust valve and the airlock exhaust valve.

If you need to aspirate biological liquid waste from inside the chamber, order with a Vacuum Take-off Port and the Whitley AsPROvac for the perfect package.

Options include:

• Single plate entry system
• Data logging and oxygen profiling capability
• Internal electrical sockets

If you want to be able to operate your workstation with two different temperature levels, specify the dual temperature option. This provides a central divider between the workstation chambers allowing you to select different temperatures for each side. A manually operated sliding door between the two chambers allows items to be passed from one area into the other.

Applications for this instrument include cancer research, stem cell research, cardiovascular research, as well as many other types of cell and tissue culture work.

Whitley H85 Hypoxystation

The Whitley H85 Hypoxystation creates hypoxic and anoxic conditions within a controlled and sustained workstation environment. It is ideal for researchers wanting to accurately control oxygen, carbon dioxide, temperature and humidity in a variety of cell culture applications.

Now you can control oxygen in 0.1% increments up to 20%; carbon dioxide in 0.1% increments up to 15%; and relative humidity up to 80%, which provides flexibility in your research and confidence in your results.

This workstation is available with an optional refrigeration unit designed to operate at 8°C (other set temperatures available if required). You can also now purchase the H85 with the Whitley Internal HEPA Filtration System.

The H85 is now available as an H85 HEPA Hypoxystation, fitted with the unique Whitley Internal HEPA Filtration System. All the atmosphere passes through the filter hundreds of times an hour, which ensures the chamber environment is cleaned quickly.

Whitley H95 Hypoxystation

The Whitley H95 Hypoxystation has been designed specifically for researchers requiring the ability to accurately control O₂, CO₂, temperature and humidity. It allows the user to control O₂, in 0.1% increments from 0.1% up to 20%; control CO₂, in 0.1% increments from 0.1% to 15%; carry out straightforward calibration of the oxygen sensor; control temperature between 5°C above ambient and 45°C; and to control relative humidity at 80% RH or higher.

The H95 has a chamber capacity of 600 litres and an airlock capacity of 36 litres. The airlock is fitted with an automatic internal door and provides an easy and rapid method for the transfer of up to 133 x 96 well plates or 252 x T25 culture flasks from the laboratory to the workstation. The airlock cycle takes only 5 minutes.

The H95 is now available as an H95 HEPA Hypoxystation, fitted with the unique Whitley Internal HEPA Filtration System. All the atmosphere passes through the filter hundreds of times an hour, which ensures the chamber environment is cleaned quickly.

Whitley H135 HEPA Hypoxystation

The H135 HEPA is a tall, wide, deep hypoxic chamber. This Hypoxystation has a capacity of 900 litres and can accommodate a variety of items of equipment such as live cell imaging devices, microscopes, plate readers, etc.

The generous internal height facilitates easy pipetting. All cell manipulations can be performed without removing them from your required hypoxic conditions. The entire cell culture incubator chamber is a working and incubation space.

This workstation provides precise environmental control whilst leaving plenty of room to work, incubate and conduct analysis. A rapid 16 litre airlock – no risk of compromising conditions inside the chamber (and it’s flushed with nitrogen as an additional cost saving).

If you need to aspirate biological liquid waste from inside the chamber, order with a Vacuum Take-off Port and the Whitley AsPROvac for the perfect package.

For those who want to use a Seahorse XF Analyzer in their work, there is the option of connecting the H135 HEPA to a Whitley i2 Instrument Workstation.
