LED-illuminated One Dimensional programmable thermogradient table
LED grow lights emit in the photosynthetic spectrum allowing temperature experiments to be conducted over a a wide range of temperatures from 0 to 50 degrees C
The polymer case does not warp or distort like wood and is water resistant
Well insulted lids can be removed to access the table surface.
LED lights emit very little heat and do not affect the thermal gradient on the plate surface.
Thermogradient tables are often used by the seed industry for germination testing in paper towels and plastics boxes but there are many other potential uses as well.
LED lights can provide sufficient light intensity to grow seedlings and thus can be used like a growth chamber
Thermogradient tables can be used to screen cultures and plants for temperature tolerance.
Other uses of thermogradient tables Insect nesting temperatures Screening cell cultures Testing adhesives Can be used as a growth chamber if both ends are programmed to the same temperature Any application where testing over a range of temperatures!
Brookfield Engineering baths cool below 0 degrees C and can be programmed for alternating temperatures.
A thermogradient table is well suited for Petri plate experiments at different temperatures.
Thermogradient tables are portable and can be placed on tables or temporary supporting structures and moved by the handles attached to the unit.
