The Mini-Mixer from Glas-Col is a personal, compact, lightweight mixer that replicates the quick, rhythmic motion of finger-vortexing to a multitude of micro-tubes simultaneously. The unique and innovative design (U.S. Patent #6,059,446) creates complete and unsurpassed mixing with each and every action. Taking up only 25 square inches of bench space, and weighing less than three pounds - this unit can be used in nearly any incubator.

• Most incredibly, this new device consumes merely a fraction of the electricity (1 - 10%) required by other competitive models to get the same results. The outstanding and long-term financial savings with added environmental benefits are far beyond anything else offered or imagined in today's world of biotechnology.

• Our mode of "finger-vortex" mixing represents the gentlest form of mixing cell cultures, where protein analysis demonstrates potential destruction from other more vigorous modes of micro-tube shaking.

• Also, this is the most efficient form of mixing for liquid volumes held in enclosed tubes between ½ micro-liter to ½ liter. By using the 3-D asymmetry of the moving tube to thoroughly mix the tube's contents, minimum energy input yields maximum action output for optimized mixing effectiveness and culture growth.
