Product Advantages


  • COMPACT. The compact, stainless steel Base Unit fits where you need it, even allowing operation inside incubators.

  • SAFE & EFFICIENT EXPANSION. The Vertical-Wheel™ impeller and U-shaped base create a low-shear mixing environment that is optimal for culturing hPSC aggregates of uniform size.

  • EASY AGGREGATE RECOVERY. The U-shaped base collects aggregates and the wide diameter cap provides easy access for aggregate recovery.

  • A PERFECT PAIR. The Base Unit is designed to be used with the 0.1 L and 0.5 L PBS-MINI MAG Single-Use Vessels, magnetically driving the vessels via MagDrive technology.

Overview

Reliably and rapidly scale up your 3D cell cultures and suspensions with the PBS-MINI MagDrive Bioreactor Base Unit and MAG Single-Use Vessels. The gentle yet efficient mixing provided by the Vertical-Wheel™ impeller enables the expansion of shear-sensitive cells without anti-foaming agents or shear protectants. Ideal for human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), the compact, sealed Base Unit can be used inside incubators. Conveniently control your culture system with a speed dial and digital display, and visualize cells in low-light conditions using built-in LED lights.

PBS-MINI 0.1 L and 0.5 L MAG Single-Use Vessels are sold separately. These disposable vessels are animal component-free and meet the requirements for USP Class VI Testing for Plastics <88> and ISO 10993. PBS Biotech Inc. provides an 18-month warranty for the PBS-MINI MagDrive Bioreactor Base Unit, valid from date of shipment. This product is for Research Use Only.

The PBS-MINI MagDrive Bioreactor Base Unit includes a power adapter that is compatible with Type A electrical outlets and 120V or 240V A/C inputs. A separate wall adaptor is needed for use outside North America; to request a region-specific power cord, please contact techsupport@stemcell.com.
