Original Press Release:
Spiral Biotech Offers 1st High-Performance Filter Bags for Laboratory Sample Preparation Blenders
NORWOOD, MASSACHUSETTS - April 30, 2007 - Advanced Instruments' subsidiary, Spiral Biotech, offers the first high-performance filter bags for laboratory food and solid sample blenders and mixers.
Spiral Biotech's BagFilter line of reinforced, heavy-duty plastic bags incorporates a
unique nonwoven filter that separates bacterial flora from residual debris and
provides easier and quicker pipeting. The single-use, sterilized bags ensure greater
time savings with complete security.
Spiral's BagFilter family is available in the following configurations:
o BagFilter® - With a nonwoven filter, this bag is recommended for analysis of
raw and cooked meat, fish, vegetables, and fruit. Two models are available:
"P" for pipeting and "S" for pouring.
o BagPage® - This bag ensures savings in analysis time by trapping sample
debris behind the clog-free filter membrane. It's ideally suited for thick pasty
products, such as cheese, pastry, and chocolate.
o BagPage+® - The bag has two compartments separated by the filter. One
side is marked to identify the sample compartment, the other pinched by an
extra weld for error-free pipeting.
o BagLight® - A sturdy plain bag for products that don't require filtration. Made from Polysilk®, the container is remarkably resilient and can be deep frozen.
BagFilter products are available in 100 ml, 400 ml or 3500 ml sizes. Designed for
use in Spiral's industry-leading BagMixer® and Gravimat® sample preparation
systems, they also work with any other type of blender.
Spiral's BagFilter products provide the quickest way to enhance a laboratory's
sample mixer performance.
Spiral is offering a free 10-bag sample pack of its 400 ml BagPage. For more
