Manufactured to industrial standards the Circulator allows for easy and effective processing of multiple samples, without the risk of cross contamination. The Stomacher owing to the quality of build and components, is highly durable and reliable, ensuring consistent homogenization during frequent use. The digital control panel provides simple control of processing features such as paddle speed and processing time, essential for consistent results. These features are programmable for repeatable homogenization protocols. Globally referenced by thousands of protocols in food microbiology, the Stomacher 400 Circulator is the gold standard in laboratory blenders. The unique patented Circulator paddle design improves organism recovery over older square paddle designs by enhancing the stirring and extrusion forces applied to the sample, driving more organisms into suspension for analysis.
