Features

• The MixMate offers excellent performance and perfect mixing results:

  • High-speed mixer (3,000 rpm) for fast and efficient mixing in all conventional tube and plate formats
  • Controlled mixing and reproducible results in mere seconds thanks to the unique ^2DMix Control technology
  • Anti-spill technology prevents lid wetting and cross contamination
  • Ergonomic design and optimized features according to the PhysioCare Concept

  With the practical 3-in-1 formats, versatility comes as standard. Equipped with 3 tube holders, one universal holder and the vortex function, the MixMate offers the highest level of flexibility when working with various tube and plate formats:

  • Plates (including 96-plate and 384-plate formats)
    • PCR plates
    • Deepwell Plates
    • Microplates
  • Tubes
    • 0.5 – 2.0 mL reaction tubes
    • 0.2 mL PCR tubes and PCR strips
  • Integrated vortex function
    • For various numerous tubes formats

  ^2DMix Control – fast and efficient mixing!

  The unique ^2DMix Control technology mixes liquids in a very controlled orbital flow. The anti-spill technology prevents splashing and lid wetting.
