Experience Counts

Anaerobe Systems has over 40 years of experience in growing and cultivating anaerobic organisms using anaerobic chambers. Our anaerobic chambers are developed and designed with direct microbiologist input. We are a unique anaerobic chamber manufacturer in that our own microbiologists work in our chambers every day to validate the culture media we produce.

  • Designed with direct microbiologist input
  • On-site installation & training available
  • 2.5 day hands on training available.  We welcome customers that purchase our chambers or have any other chamber.

2.5-DAY LAB BASED TRAINING

After your chamber has been installed and you have received the on-site training, we strongly encourage you to attend our Advanced Anaerobic Bacteriology Course. This 2.5 day hands on, lab based course covers the major topics in anaerobic bacteriology workup including specimen collection & transport, primary set up and isolation, culture media selection, identification techniques, and oxygen toxicity. Students work inside the anaerobe chamber with live mixed culture anaerobes to isolate and identify them. More in depth chamber troubleshooting, maintenance, and general use techniques are also covered.

The AS-500 gloveless anaerobic chamber is a large chamber with many added features to improve ergonomics, reduce daily maintenance, and monitor & control the anaerobic environment. The high capacity incubator and large work floor are ideal for large clinical or research labs, research studies, or bio-therapeutic development. The unit requires minimal daily maintenance, and working inside the chamber is quick and easy compared to other gloveless models. The AS-500 has a robust environmental conditioning and monitoring system which includes HEPA and chemical filtration, oxygen monitoring, humidity removal, and oxygen removal. The large digital screen display on the outside provides easy controls/configurations, and clearly shows the chamber status. The AS-500 offers adjustable shelves and plenty of storage space for microbiology supplies, and has USB/Ethernet connectivity for operating other equipment inside the chamber.

AS-150 Features and Benefits

Download Brochure

The AS-150 gloveless anaerobic chamber is our entry level chamber with fewer features and less workspace, but with a lower cost and smaller footprint. The AS-150 is ideal for smaller labs that typically have fewer than 100 plates in their incubator, or labs that don’t have the space or budget for a larger chamber. A unique feature of the AS-150 is it’s ability to be installed as a single or double wide unit, and can be modified in the lab after it’s been set up in a different configuration.

  • 150 plate capacity enclosed incubator
  • Low-cost cost, basic anaerobic functionality
  • Palladium oxygen removal catalyst (baked daily to clean)
  • Vacuum-less airlock cycle and sleeve entry
  • Small footprint & space requirements
  • Modular expandable design to double chamber size
  • Interior work area 36″ W x 24″ D

(discontinued)

October 2020 Update: We are sad to announce that we have sold our final AS-580 chamber. That model is being discontinued, however we will continue to support and stock parts for it for the next 10+ years. The newly designed AS-500 gloveless anaerobic chamber replaces, and greatly improves upon the features of, the AS-580 chamber. Used/refurbished AS-580 anaerobic chambers are sometimes available, as we take trade ins from customers and resell them. If you are interested in a used AS-580 anaerobic chamber, inquire about availability.

The AS-580 gloveless anaerobic chamber is a large chamber with many added features to improve ergonomics and reduce daily maintenance. The high capacity incubator and large work floor are ideal for large clinical or research labs. The unit requires minimal daily maintenance, and working inside the chamber is quick and easy compared to other gloveless models. The AS-580 anaerobe chamber can be outfitted with connectivity options such as an integrated touch screen monitor to connect to lab networks, or a high resolution digital camera imaging system.

  • 580 plate capacity enclosed incubator
  • Self regenerating catalyst does not need to be baked
  • Vacuum-less airlock cycle and sleeve entry
  • Larger work surface for storing supplies and processing samples
  • Interior work area 46″W x 29″D
  • Optional integrated computer monitor or digital imaging system
