What Is Labmate LMAJ-A103 Anaerobic Jar? 

Labmate LMAJ-A103 is a sealed laboratory anaerobic jar used to create oxygen-free conditions for incubating and growing anaerobic microorganisms inside standard laboratory incubators.

What Is Labmate LMAJ-A103 Used For?

Labmate LMAJ-A103 is used for microbial incubation under oxygen-free or low-oxygen conditions.

Key Applications:

• Anaerobic bacterial isolation

• Clinical microbiology testing

• Pharmaceutical sterility and microbial limit testing

• Microbiome and gut flora research

• Environmental microbial analysis

Why Is an Anaerobic Jar Needed?

Anaerobic microorganisms cannot survive or grow in oxygen-rich environments.

How Does Labmate LMAJ-A103 Work?

Labmate system creates a controlled oxygen-free environment inside a sealed chamber.

Process:

1. Culture plates are placed inside the jar

2. Gas sachet or external gas is introduced

3. Jar is sealed using locking mechanism

4. Oxygen is absorbed or displaced

5. Indicator strip confirms anaerobic condition

6. Jar is placed inside incubator for incubation
