Working Principle
The core principle of the shaking water bath is to combine the constant temperature water bath with mechanical oscillation, the water in the water bath is heated to the set temperature through the electric heating element, and real-time monitoring and feedback adjustment is carried out by the high-sensitivity temperature probe and the PID algorithm controller to ensure the constant temperature state.
Meanwhile, the oscillation mechanism is driven by a brushless motor and drives the platform for reciprocating motion through the eccentric shaft. Suspended buffer structure can effectively isolate the vibration source from the casing to prevent energy leakage and improve the smoothness of operation.
The liquid in the tank realizes the uniform distribution of temperature between different samples through natural convection and heat conduction, while the oscillating motion speeds up the process of heat exchange and material transfer between the liquid and the samples, which improves the efficiency of the reaction and the quality of the culture.
Application Fields
- Microbial culture: commonly used in bacteria, yeast and other experiments that require constant temperature oscillation culture, such as strain amplification, pre-fermentation culture.
- Biological reaction experiment: can be used for enzyme activity research, protein expression, DNA hybridization reaction and other temperature-sensitive reaction system.
- Cell tissue engineering: suitable for mammalian cells, plant cells and other low-shear, low-temperature environment.
- Drug screening and synthesis: through the constant temperature environment to control the drug dissolution rate and reaction rate, improve the efficiency of pharmaceutical process.
- Food and environmental monitoring: in dairy products, E. coli and other pollutants detection, to provide constant temperature mixing environment, speed up the detection process.
- Molecular biology experiments: such as DNA denaturation, denaturation, protein denaturation, RNA synthesis and other applications that require temperature-controlled shaking.
