Strathkelvin - Model RC300 & RC350 - Respiration Cell - Manual

The RC300 and RC350 comprise a water-jacketed respiration chamber with an adjacent ‘parking chamber’. The respiration chamber is made from precision bore glass and is marked with a white spot. The parking chamber is unmarked and is used to hold the electrode at the correct temperature when not in use during an experiment. A small magnetic spinbar should be introduced into the respiration chamber and the whole unit placed on a magnetic stirrer. For rapid metabolic events, (i.e. those in which the oxygen in the solution would be depleted in under 10 minutes), it may be preferable to use the more permeable FEP membranes with their faster response times. (Order Part No: SI025 and the special electrode jacket, Part No: SI035.).
