BugBox Ax® – Compact workstation for anaerobic conditions

The BugBox Ax from The Baker Company combines the benefits of the anaerobic BugBox and BugBox plus models: with the footprint of the BugBox and the bigger interlock of the BugBox Plus, the new BugBox Ax offers an increased plate capacity both in the anaerobic chamber and in the interlock. It provides optimal primary isolation rates and allows easy handling of the culture plates without exposing them to oxygen.

The main chamber is easily accessed through the Ezee SleeveTM Glove Ports. The atmosphere in the main chamber is controlled via the new and intuitive touchscreen, offering precise control over temperature and relative humidity.
