VITROCELL Systems

Special sealing and connection mechanisms guarantee a hermetic connection of the base module with the aerosol exposure top. The aerosol inlet-stream flows through specifically shaped inlets. The stainless steel / VITROGLIDE inlets are specifically designed for aerosols containing nanoparticles. The aerosol inlets are connected to the distribution or dilution systems. Extraction from the module takes place via small holes using a controlled vacuum flow. VITROCELL® calibration valves, which are connected to a vacuum pump, control flow rates effectively. The aerosol exposure top features an in/outlet for heating the water circuit , ensuring corresponding temperatures with the base module. It is made of high-quality anodized aluminum. Aerosol exposure top Universal Module with optional adaptor sets for: ○ 12-well sized inserts ○ Snapwell® inserts ○ 24-well sized inserts ○ 35 mm Petri dishes (AMES test) Skin Exposure Auxiliary Equipment Dose Monitoring Racks & Carts Dilution Dose Supply Exposure Systems Base module The base module is made of electropolished stainless steel for maximum durability and is fully autoclavable for 20 min. at 120° C and higher temperatures. A constant temperature within the unit (37° C / 99° F) is assured via water circuit heating. Therefore, an additional incubator is not required during exposure. The media are supplied individually to each well compartment . Optionally, media exchange can be carried out on a continuous basis using a precision media pump. This module is renowned in scientific circles for its reliability and durability. Cell culture insert (6-well size) Optional media inserts for media volume reduction units (10.8 ml) (static supply only for easier maintenance) Optional microbalance sensor for dose monitoring 17
