clinostat clock type
Product Description
The Clinostat Clock Type is a precision laboratory instrument designed to simulate microgravity conditions by continuously rotating biological samples or small objects along a horizontal axis. This rotation counteracts the effect of gravity, allowing researchers to study the effects of weightlessness on plant growth, cell cultures, and other biological specimens. Constructed with durable materials and calibrated for smooth, consistent rotation, the Clinostat Clock Type is widely used in botanical, microbiological, and space biology research.
Primary Uses
Laboratory Applications
- Simulates microgravity conditions for plant growth experiments.
- Used in cell culture studies to analyze biological responses to altered gravity.
- Facilitates research in space biology and gravitational biology.
- Assists in experiments involving seed germination under controlled gravity simulation.
Secondary Uses
Industrial and Other Laboratory Uses
- Applied in pharmaceutical research to study drug effects under microgravity conditions.
Used in academic and research institutions for educational demonstrations.
