Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between 6-roll and 10-roll mixers?
Rollers with more tubes, such as the IKA Roller 10, provide a larger surface area to accommodate more samples simultaneously, while 6-roll models like the LLG uniROLLER are more compact for smaller batches.
2. Can I expand the capacity of the DWK Wheaton WSR?
Yes, the Wheaton WSR is a modular system, allowing laboratories to stack and scale the machine's capacity as production or research requirements increase.
3. Are these rollers suitable for mixing blood samples?
Absolutely; roller mixers are the industry standard for blood tubes as they provide a gentle, continuous motion that prevents clotting and sedimentation without damaging cells.
4. Why should I choose a digital roller over an analog one?
Digital models like the IKA Roller 10 offer precise speed control and integrated timers, which are essential for standardized protocols and highly reproducible results in sensitive assays.
