The Linear Shaker-SSL2 from Stuart provides for quiet and smooth motion while mixing the cultures in laboratories. There is a built-in digital timer, so the technician can easily keep track of the time and speed of the shaker and determine the parameters. The shaker is fitted with rubberized securing bars on the cradle-like platform to help with quick release of the bottles. Another advantage of the shaker is that it can accommodate different size of vessels thereby increasing its practicality.
