Integra Biosciences Vacusafe Vacuum System

Vacuum systems are widely used for aspiration of liquids and their subsequent disposal. Common applications include the removal of media from cell cultures, of supernatants after centrifugation and of wash solutions from immunoassay well-plates.

Protecting the vacuum source from contamination by liquids and aerosols with an overflow trap and a filter is not only good laboratory practice, but also imperative as a personal protection measure when working with biological, chemical or radioactive liquids.

As an alternative to “do-it-yourself” systems typically found in laboratories, the VACUSAFE aspiration system offers increased safety, exceptional userfriendliness and high versatility.

Vacuboy Aspirating Tool

The VACUBOY is a convenient tool that converts a vacuum source into a user friendly system for aspirating liquids from virtually any laboratory container – at the touch of a button and in a controlled way. The hand piece, the core element of the VACUBOY, is simply connected to any available vacuum source using silicone tubing (not included)  and fitted with one of the different aspiration adapters (not included).
