MicroBaskets
An optimized crystal or biological cell harvesting cryo-loop. Mitegen has developed this 3 dimensional micro-structure to simplify harvesting and manipulation. The side walls allow for more rapid movement in media, speeding up the harvest process. This one size fits most device eliminates the need to preselect the right loop size simplifying inventory, purchasing, while also speeding up the harvest process. Pores throughout the device allow easy for wicking out excess media with a simple touch off of the bottom side.
Each box contains twenty (20) MicroBaskets
Mounts can either be inserted into reusable bases or epoxied into standard bases.
Product Information
