About Baerman Funnel
BAERMAN FUNNEL (NEMATODES SCREENING)- Set up consists of glass laboratory funnels and separatory funnel
- A clamped rubber tube is placed below the funnel
- A piece of window screen (or similar material) is placed in the mouth of the funnel
- The funnel is placed into a rack or holder
Optimized Extraction for Laboratory ApplicationsEngineered for precision, the Baerman Funnel Apparatus excels in extracting nematodes and larvae from both soil and plant samples. Its transparent borosilicate glass construction allows seamless observation of your samples throughout the process, ensuring reliable results in parasitological and soil analysis research. With easy-to-clean detachable parts, this apparatus supports frequent laboratory use.
Manual Control and High Chemical ResistanceThe manual operation, controlled via a rubber tube and metal clamp, provides analysts with optimal regulation of liquid release. The borosilicate glass funnel resists chemicals and endures temperatures up to 120C, making it highly suitable for routine laboratory procedures that demand robustness and accuracy. Its benchtop, stand-mounted design maximizes convenience and stability during use.
FAQs of Baerman Funnel:
Q: How does the Baerman Funnel with Outlet Valve function in laboratories?
A: The Baerman Funnel operates by suspending soil or plant samples in water within its funnel. Over time, nematodes or larvae move into the liquid, which is then carefully released by unclamping the rubber tubing for collection. The transparent borosilicate glass allows observation of the extraction process throughout.
Q: What types of analyses is this apparatus suitable for?
A: This apparatus is ideal for parasitological, nematological, and soil extract analyses, making it a vital tool for researchers in biological, agricultural, and environmental laboratories.
Q: When should I choose this Baerman Funnel over other extraction devices?
A: Opt for the Baerman Funnel with Outlet Valve when you require controlled, manual extraction of nematodes or larvae, especially when chemical resistance, visual monitoring, and ease of cleaning are priorities.
Q: Where should the Baerman Funnel be installed or used in the laboratory?
A: This device is designed for benchtop use and includes a powder-coated steel stand for stable and convenient placement in any laboratory environment.
Q: What is the process for cleaning and maintaining the Baerman Funnel?
A: All key components are detachable, allowing thorough cleaning. After use, separate the funnel, rubber tubing, and stand, then wash and dry each part to prevent contamination and ensure accurate results in future analyses.
Q: What benefits does the transparent, borosilicate glass funnel offer?
A: The funnels transparency enables easy real-time observation, while the borosilicate material ensures safety and durability due to its high chemical and temperature resistance.
