Microplate Shaker is a compact, motorized device designed to agitate samples in microplates, which are standard in high-throughput laboratories. It is indispensable for applications requiring thorough mixing, such as cell culture, solubility studies, ELISA assays, DNA hybridization, and general sample homogenization.

These instruments feature a platform that securely holds microplates of various formats (e.g., 96-well or 384-well) and agitates them with controlled orbital or linear motion. Key operational parameters—speed (rpm), time, and sometimes temperature—are precisely adjustable to ensure optimal mixing without causing cross-contamination or spillage.

Modern shakers offer user-friendly interfaces, programmable protocols, and quiet operation. Their ability to provide consistent and reproducible agitation significantly enhances workflow efficiency and data reliability in research, clinical diagnostics, and pharmaceutical development. The Microplate Shaker is a fundamental tool for automating and improving the accuracy of liquid handling processes.
