Product catalog summary
Introduction to the 'Fish-tail' Bioagitator
The 'Fish-tail' bioagitator is a unique mixing device inspired by the natural movement of fish tails, developed by LAMBDA. It is designed to provide highly efficient mixing without creating eddies or shear stress, making it ideal for sensitive applications such as cell cultures.

Design and Functionality
The bioagitator features elastic agitating discs shaped like fish tails, which facilitate efficient energy transfer in liquid media. This design mimics the natural movement of fish, ensuring gentle and effective mixing in both horizontal and vertical directions.

Advantages
  • No cutting edges, preventing damage to cells.
  • No formation of eddies or turbulence during agitation.
  • Efficient medium circulation through the up and down movement of the discs.
  • Prevents cell damage by avoiding hydrodynamic shear stress.
  • Ensures optimal oxygenation and gas exchange without air flooding.

Conclusion
The 'Fish-tail' bioagitator is an optimal choice for applications requiring gentle and efficient mixing, particularly in cell culture environments, due to its innovative design that leverages natural principles for energy transmission.

Bio mimicking agitation for MINIFOR laboratory fermentor bioreactor system-1

Unique bio-mimicking "Fish-tail" bioagitator: - highly efficient mixing without eddies - free of cutting edges - produces no shear stress 'rISB-TAIL' AGITATOR Did you know, it took over 500 millions years for nature to develop a perfect fish tail for energy transmission in the water? Only LAMBDA uses this know-how of nature to produce a unique Bio-mimicking "Fish-tail" bioagitator... Move it like a fish! The agitating discs of the 'fish-tail' bioagitator are elastic and have the typical form of fish tails. In analogy to a fish tail, this shape of the stirring disc produces an efficient energy transfer in liquid (culture medium). Have you ever seen a fish moving with a propeller instead of a tail?
