Incubator Shaker

Multitron

Minimize interruptions and ensure optimal productivity at every step of your bioprocess

The Multitron incubator shaker is an application-oriented shaker, configured specifically for your cell culture or microbial process conditions.

Advantages

Large capacity for parallel processing

Parallel processing in optimal growth conditions, handling screening and production in tandem. Compact design with large internal capacity, a triple stacked system has ample capacity that can be used to cultivate 63 L or 23,000 experiments in parallel in less than a square meter of space.

Reliable and reproducible results

Maintain a reliable environment for your cells with reproducible results across all trays due to the high-degree of temperature uniformity, and precision during your uninterrupted 24/7 operation.

Easy to clean and mitigate risks

Designed with reducing lab contamination in mind, the Multitron Incubator Shaker has rounded corners that make interior cleaning easy. The bottom well is accessible for cleaning and the optional UV emission source in the air flow path provides additional safety.

Experience parallel processing

What if there was a single incubator shaker that could handle both screening and production at the same time with a configuration tailored to your needs, increasing your process development speeds and reducing your time to market

Worried about lab space?

The Multitron incubator shaker, compared to its competitors, has an ideal working height of 140 cm on the upper unit and ensures easy access to the user. Even with the door opened, the maximum height reaches 180 cm, taking up minimal lab space. 


Shaker Accessory - Available only in the United States

Water for Incubators

After years of feedback and study, INFORS HT has developed Water for Incubators. It is double distilled, 0.1µm filter sterilized, has a pH of 7-9 with a conductivity of 1-20 µS/cm, and is terminal sterilized. The water formulation removes certain divalent ions and raises the pH to fight off waterborne bacteria and fungi to provide a sterile culture environment.

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever survivors elicit protective non-neutralizing antibodies that target 11 overlapping regions on glycoprotein GP38

Researchers at Adimab, LLC isolated 188 monoclonal antibodies against Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) GP38 from human survivors. While non-neutralizing, these antibodies target 11 overlapping sites and demonstrate protective efficacy in rodent models. This study provides valuable insights into CCHFV viral glycoprotein and could aid the development of antibody therapeutics for this lethal virus.

Biolayer interferometry for adeno-associated virus capsid titer measurement and applications to upstream and downstream process development

Researchers at the University of Delaware used the INFORS HT Multitron incubator shaker to evaluate biolayer interferometry (BLI) for fast, high-throughput AAV capsid titer measurement. The study highlights the accuracy of AAVX-BLI across multiple rAAV serotypes, making it a strong alternative to ELISA. Applied in transfection optimization and AAV purification, this method offers valuable insights for improving rAAV production processes.

Chemoorganotrophic electrofermentation by Cupriavidus necator using redox mediators

Researchers from the Institute of Bioprocess Engineering and Pharmaceutical Technology at the University of Applied Sciences Mittelhessen have made strides in chemoorganotrophic electrofermentation using Cupriavidus necator. By experimenting with different redox mediators, they identified ferricyanide as a key player in enhancing anodic respiration. With the INFORS HT Multitron providing precise environmental control, the team achieved remarkable current densities, offering a promising solution to the challenges of oxygen-driven fermentation systems.

How clean is your incubator shaker?

Cleaning an incubator shaker sounds trivial, but it is critical for cultivation success. The good news is that doing the right thing is simple, effective, and can easily be integrated into the routine management of a laboratory.

Enhancing plasmid DNA (pDNA) production: Innovations in process, manufacturing, and purification techniques

A plasmid DNA production process was performed comparing conventional Erlenmeyer flasks with LB medium and the Thomson’s Ultra Yield® system. E. coli cells were cultivated in both systems in the INFORS HT Multitron incubator shaker, bacterial growth was monitored, and the plasmids were purified at the end of cultivation. Subsequently, the quality of the isolated plasmids was analyzed by HPLC. The combination of the Ultra Yield® flasks with the enriched Plasmid+® medium and the AirOtop® enhanced seal led to higher cell densities and a 21-fold higher amount of plasmid than in Erlenmeyer shake flasks with LB medium.

The most loved Multitron features

The Multitron incubator shaker remains uniquely popular since its launch in 1991. The original concept was to offer maximum shake flask capacity whilst occupying minimum space within the laboratory. A number of other new features were launched alongside the Multitron, and since have become firm favourites with users. Some of the best loved capabilities of the Multitron are listed below.
