Thermo Scientific MaxQ 8000 Shaker Incubator

Thermo Fisher Scientific SHKE8000-ICE

This listing is for a Thermo Scientific MaxQ 8000 Orbital shaker incubator

The unit is in full working condition and is ready for immediate release.

The Thermo Scientific MaxQ 8000 is an orbital shaker incubator — a piece of lab equipment that combines controlled shaking and temperature control in one unit. It’s designed for biological and biochemical workflows where maintaining both a constant temperature and agitation are important, such as:

- Cell culture (bacteria, yeast, insect or mammalian cells)
- Fermentation
- Protein expression
- Hybridization and DNA work
- Solubility studies and other mixing tasks

How It Works

- Orbital shaking: The platform inside moves in a circular (orbital) motion to mix or agitate samples evenly.
- Temperature control: It incubates samples at controlled temperatures — typically from above ambient up to ~60 °C, and in refrigerated models also below ambient — so you can grow cultures or perform temperature-sensitive reactions.
- Stackability: Units can be stacked 2–3 high to multiply capacity without using more floor space.

Key Features

- Temperature range: Ambient +10 °C to ~60 °C (or lower if refrigerated version)
- Speed range: ~25–400 rpm for shaking with accurate control
- HEPA-filtered chamber: Promotes clean air and reduces cross-contamination risk inside the incubator for better culture conditions.
- Slide-out platform: Makes loading and adjusting flasks easy.
- Microprocessor controls: Digital display and alarms for monitoring temperature, speed, and time.

Typical Applications

- Growing microbial or cell cultures
- Protein expression studies
- Hybridization reactions
- Solubility assays
- General mixing where precise temperature control is needed alongside agitation.
