Easy aspiration of small volumes of biological liquid waste


VACUSIP is a portable benchtop vacuum aspiration system that can be placed wherever it is needed. Besides increased mobility, the system’s battery version makes it easier to keep the workspace clean and organized, making it suitable for the use in a Class II safety cabinet.

The system is an out-of-the-box solution. The collection bottle is simply connected to the built-in pump and an aspiration adapter is chosen to match the application. Operation is straight forward – the unit is switched on and the vacuum is regulated by applying pressure on the autoclavable hand adapter.

The system is suitable for the aspiration of small volumes of liquids up to 10 ml. Whenever supernatant or excess liquids need to be disposed, the system makes short work of the process. Typical applications include aspirating small volumes of liquid out of microcentrifuge tubes or microplates as well as removing supernatants after RNA/DNA extraction, washing solutions from Western blots or ELISA and excess liquid from object slides/petri dishes.

The system’s integrated pump runs silently and stops automatically when the vacuum is established. This prevents unnecessary pump operation and reduces noise. Disposal of aspirated waste liquids is a safe, clean and simple process. An autoclavable glass collection bottle is delivered with each system, suitable for multiple uses. Integra Biosciences
