Jars and Jar Gassing System

Whitley Jar Gassing System

With the Whitley Jar Gassing System you can create perfect conditions for growing anaerobes in jars in just 2 minutes for less than 18 pence and for microaerophiles in 15 seconds for less than 3 pence (compared with about £1.60 for every gas generating kit used).

A full colour touch screen control panel allows you to monitor, in real time, that the criteria necessary for the creation of either anaerobic or microaerobic conditions has been met.

The Whitley Jar Gassing System has an built-in fault detector to create an alert if a jar is leaking. It is essential that jars remain air tight to maintain conditions and that you have confidence that the jar will maintain the correct conditions throughout the incubation period. As the Jar Gassing System pulls a vacuum, it detects the jar is sealed by the speed that the vacuum is pulled (if the jar is leaking it will not be able to create a vacuum).

If you already have anaerobic jars that you wish to use you can order the adaptor kit, which will enable you to connect this anaerobic jar system to most types of jar.

• Reduces the cost of creating microaerobic conditions by 98% and for anaerobic conditions by 89%.
• Reduces the time taken to create required conditions – gas packs can take up to an hour but the Jar Gassing system removes the atmosphere and replaces it with anaerobic mixed gas very quickly.
• It is easy to use (with instructions in English, German and French) so no complicated operator training is required.
• Jar uses low temperature, re-usable catalyst sachets.
• Incorporates PIN code protected user access levels for additional security.
• The optional printer provides you with a hard copy audit trail for accreditation purposes.

Whitley Incubation Box

New from Don Whitley Scientific is the rectangular, transparent and stackable anaerobic ‘jar’. It can be used to create the perfect environmental conditions for the isolation and cultivation of anaerobic and microaerobic organisms and for cell culture applications.

The Whitley Incubation Box is ideal for use with the Whitley Jar Gassing System (evacuation/replacement method) or as a stand-alone system to use with gas generation sachets.

Because of the shape of the vessel, and as no connectors or valves protrude beyond the outer surface of the lid, Whitley Incubation Box’s can be stacked on top of each other inside an incubator or on the bench, saving valuable space. The main jar (without the lid in place and with no samples inside) can be nested with other empty jars so that work in progress takes up minimal space.

This anaerobic ‘jar’ will accommodate either 12-14 x 90mm Petri dishes or 5 x standard multi-well plates. The four latches used to open and close the box are attached to the lid so there are no loose parts to misplace.

The Whitley Incubation Box may be used to transfer items into and out of a Whitley Workstation and has been designed to fit through the 35-sized airlock and every larger Whitley airlock. This application is ideal when you want to move samples from one workstation to another and when you want to preserve your samples in modified atmospheric conditions while they continue to grow in an external incubator.

The design of the Whitley Incubation Box includes a safety valve, which ensures an appropriate level of vacuum is achieved without damaging the box itself. It is durable and lightweight and can be used to create multiple atmospheres.
