- Cultivation of microaerophiles like Campylobacter spp. and Helicobacter pylori.
2. Food Microbiology
- Detection of anaerobic spoilage organisms in food products.
- Analysis of microaerophilic pathogens in meat and dairy.
3. Research and Diagnostics
- Study of anaerobic bacteria in environmental samples.
- Cultivation of organisms requiring enriched CO₂ conditions for molecular or biochemical studies.
4. Industrial Microbiology
- Supporting fermentation processes requiring strict atmospheric control.
Benefits
- Efficient Atmospheric Control: Maintains optimal environments for strict anaerobes and microaerophiles.
- Compact and Portable: Lightweight and easy to handle with the integrated carrying handle.
- Large Plate Capacity: Holds up to 12 plates, allowing for simultaneous incubation of multiple samples.
- Durability: Polycarbonate construction ensures resistance to wear and long-term reliability.
- Safety Features: Vacuum release and self-venting clips prevent overpressure and ensure secure operation.
Usage Instructions
- Preparation:
- Place the plate carrier into the AnaeroJar and load culture plates.
- Atmosphere Generation:
- Use compatible atmosphere generation systems (e.g., AnaeroGen™, CampyGen™, or CO₂ sachets) to establish the required conditions.
- Securing the Lid:
- Align the lid and secure it with the four self-venting clips to create a tight seal.
- Incubation:
- Incubate the AnaeroJar at the appropriate temperature for the target microorganism.
- Opening the Jar:
- Use the vacuum release feature to safely remove the lid after incubation.
Storage and Maintenance
- Jar Storage: Keep at room temperature in a clean and dry environment.
- Cleaning: Wash with mild detergent and water; avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the polycarbonate material.
- Regularly inspect the jar for signs of wear or damage, especially around the sealing surfaces.
