MILFORD, MA. – Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, has introduced the Thermo Scientific Reacti-Therm Heating and Stirring Modules for GC and HPLC derivitization, as well as other small scale reactions. These reliable and easy-to-use dry block heaters provide uniform, stable heating with a temperature range of 10 – 200 °C. Ideal for performing heating, stirring and evaporation functions, this modular unit is CSA certified and CE compliant. Available in four different models: single block and triple block sizes with either heat only or heat-and-stir functionality, the unit is compatible with a range of interchangeable accessories, enabling it to adapt to a variety of vial types and sizes.

Each Reacti-Therm module contains a recessed cavity that holds either one or three interchangeable Reacti-Block aluminum blocks, which accommodate a variety of small reagent vials, test tubes and glassware. The heat-and-stir models incorporate Reacti-Vial Magnetic Stirrers, which are placed inside the small reaction vials for quick and easy reagent stirring. Furthermore, sample evaporation can be performed when the Reacti-Vap Evaporator is attached to the module. Optional remote temperature probes ensure a high level of accuracy and the LED display provides a clear readout of the sample temperature.

The Thermo Scientific Reacti-Therm Heating and Stirring Modules are ideal for any laboratory performing GC sample preparation and amino acid analysis using HPLC, as well as general sample incubation and evaporation. For further information, please visit www.thermo.com/columns.
