Every autoclave has slightly different installation requirements and preferences. Making the right decisions now will help ensure a long service life, easy maintenance, and minimal building wear and tear. Arguably, […]

We trust that all four of these autoclave installation questions will seem glaringly obvious—once you see them written out. But it’s been our experience that all too often autoclave buyers […]

Bioreactors are the workhorses of many labs, creating the ideal controlled environments for cultivating cells, fermentation, regulating biochemical reactions, and the like. But between experiments, this device needs thorough sterilization […]

More labs are taking sustainability more seriously. That’s fantastic! But it also means that more equipment manufacturers are promoting dubious claims to  sustainability by hyping the “efficiency” of their “eco-friendly” […]

Thwack! The sound of people slapping at mosquitoes is as much a regional summertime tradition as picnics and swimming pools. But the flying bloodsuckers are rapidly becoming more than just […]
