A Circulating water bath is an essential lab instrument designed to maintain accurate and uniform temperatures (ambient to 100°C+) for samples in tubes, flasks, or beakers. Its built-in pump ensures consistent heat distribution, making it ideal for enzyme reactions, sample thawing, and microbiological assays. Constructed with corrosion-resistant materials, it's widely used in research, clinical, and industrial labs.

What Is the Use of Water Bath Shaker?

A water bath shaker combines temperature control (water bath) and agitation (shaking) for:

  • Uniform Heating & Mixing -Ideal for enzymatic reactions (e.g., DNA digestion).

  • Cell Culture - Gentle suspension of temperature-sensitive cells.

  • Solubility Studies- Dissolving compounds at controlled temps (25°C-100°C).

  • Microbial Growth - Aerobic culturing with precise heat distribution.


What Is the Difference Between a Circulating Water Bath and a Shaking Water Bath?

Circulating Water Bath:

  • Maintains uniform temperature (no shaking).

  • Uses a pump to circulate water.

  • Ideal for precise heating (e.g., reagent warming, stability tests).

  • Shaking Water Bath:

  • Combines heating + agitation (50-300 rpm).

  • Used for mixing while heating (e.g., cell culture, solubility studies).

  • Choose circulating for stability, shaking for mixing+heating.
