Rockers and Shakers are commonly used in laboratories for even mixing, spreading and stirring of reagents and chemicals. The Platform Rocker is a type of shaker which moves in a see-saw motion. It allows gentle movement of liquids in containers, thus promoting even mixing and spreading. The liquid to be mixed is kept in a container, such as a petri dish and the container is kept on the platform of the rocker. This platform has a non-slip rubber mat which prevents the dish from moving and spilling while the rocker moves. The see-saw motion of the rocker is maintained by a DC motor. A rubber feet and cushion are provided under the unit to prevent it from moving on the surface on which it is placed. The Platform Rocker I from Genei is a single platform instrument and is mainly intended for even staining of gels, culture aeration and for western blotting applications:
