About

8-Channel Handheld Capper/Decapper – Saving you Time and Effort

The 8-Channel Handheld Capper/Decapper  is a versatile tool designed to increase throughput and save you time and effort. Capable of consistently capping and de-capping multiple tubes simultaneously, this innovative device ensures smooth and efficient lab operations. Its lightweight, ergonomic design reduces operator strain and seamlessly transitions from manual to automated systems, making it an indispensable addition to any laboratory.

Speed and Efficiency

With the ability to securely seal an 8-cap row in just 10 seconds or an entire rack of 96 tubes in 2 minutes, the 8-Channel Handheld Capper/Decapper significantly enhances manual processing throughput. The device guarantees consistent sealing across each tube. Its automatic column-type cap removal and capping performance streamline workflows, ensuring quick and reliable operation. This not only saves valuable time but also reduces the risk of repetitive strain injuries for lab personnel.

Ergonomic and Portable

Designed with user comfort in mind, the 8-Channel Handheld Capper/Decapper is lightweight and ergonomically crafted for effortless screw cap processing. It’s neat, compact design and low-force, dual-button cap ejection system makes it ideal for various laboratory environments. Its included storage stand ensures secure and convenient storage and when not in use.

Convenient Charging and Compatibility

The tool features magnetic contact charging, offering long battery life and fast charging times. Ready to use whenever you are, it efficiently caps, de-caps, or recaps tubes by column or row. Interchangeable cap driver cassettes allow for easy processing of different screw cap tube types and SBS rack formats.

This product has been discontinued (read more).

The CellG3 assay reagent for the measurement of endo-cellulase (endo-1,4-β-glucanase) contains two components; 
1) 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl-β-D-cellotrioside (BCNPG3) and 2) thermostable β-glucosidase. The benzylidene blocking group prevents any hydrolytic action by the β-glucosidase on BCNPG3.  Incubation with an endo-cellulase generates a non-blocked colourimetric oligosaccharide that is rapidly hydrolysed by the ancillary β-glucosidase.  The rate of formation of 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol is therefore directly related to the hydrolysis of BCNPG3 by the endo-cellulase.  The reaction is terminated and the phenolate colour is developed on addition of Tris buffer solution (pH 9.0).

Please note that a new assay kit (K-CellG5) is now available for the measurement of endo-cellulase.  The CellG5 reagent contains a cellopentaose core and exhibits vastly improved sensitivity for some cellulases.  In addition, the exchange of the benzylidene blocking group in CellG3 for 3-keto-butylidene in CellG5 improves the substrate’s water solubility significantly, allowing for a reduction in the concentration of DMSO required in the assay.  As DMSO is known to inhibit certain cellulases, this is another benefit in using CellG5.  Megazyme now recommends the use of K-CellG5 for all assays for the measurement of endo-cellulase.
