Fta-1 Aspirator With Trap Flask, 1 L
An Ideal Personal Tool For Independent Operation Away From An Inline Labvacuum Supply

• Compact, Efficient, Easy To Use
• Flexible For The User By Offering A Choice Of Either A Single Tip Operation Or A Multi-tip Option With 8 Tips For Use On Standard Pcr Type Plates
• The Integrated Micro-biological Filter Is Hydrophobic And Designed To Trap Any Bacteria, Viruses Or Infected Particles Which May Have Been Present In The Aspirated Solutions
• The Unit Can Stand Directly Inside A Workstation, Supplied With A Slim 12v Power Cord
• The Unit Can Also Be Used For Routine Operations Of Cells Washing From Culture Medium And Resuspension In A Buffer

The Operation Principle Is Based On Creating Negative Pressure In The Trapping Flask Using An Built-in Micro-compressor. The Collecting Tip Is Connected With Polyethylene Tube To The Trapping Flask. Liquid Is Removed From The Microtest Tube When The Collecting Tip Touches The Solution Surface.

A Tube Holder-organiser Is Conveniently Located On The Right Hand Side Of The Fta-1. This Can Accommodate Two Tubes E.g. One For A Hydrochloric Acid Solution And One For A Distillate Which Is Necessary For Tip Washing And Storing, Such That A Tip Can Be Re-used.

A Suction Microbiological Filter Eliminates Risk Of Contamination From The Trap Flask With Bacteria, Viruses And Infected Particles. The Suction Microbiological Filter Is Hydrophobic: With Efficiency Up To 99.9% It Holds Particles Bigger Than 0.027 Micron, Which Are Smaller Than Agents Of Hepatitis A, B And C.

Applications
Aspiration/removal Of Alcohol/buffer Remaining Quantities From Microtest Tube Walls During Dna/rna Purification And Other Macromolecule Reprecipitation Techniques. For Routine Operations Of Cells Washing From Culture Medium And Resuspension In Buffer.
