Seed Handling Equipment

This range of products is aimed to help plant scientists move individual Arabidopsis thaliana seeds around easily and in a controlled manner.

There is at least one level of filtration incorporated into every Vacuseed product to trap any fragments of genetically modified material. This prevents any cross-contamination risk there may be, especially as the filters are autoclavable. Each product comes complete with specially sized Arabidopsis thaliana seed tips which are also autoclavable. Other sized tips for other size seeds are also available, please enquire for details.
