Reacti-Therm & Reacti-Vap Accessories from Thermo Scientific

The Thermo Scientific Reacti-Therm and Reacti-Vap systems are supported by a comprehensive range of accessories designed to enhance flexibility when performing derivatisation or other small-scale reactions in the laboratory. From interchangeable heating blocks and specialist vials to temperature probes, stirring solutions, and sealing options, these accessories provide tailored functionality for a wide variety of applications.

Available accessories include:

• Reacti-Block Aluminium Heating Blocks – Available in multiple hole configurations, precision-drilled to fit almost any size Reacti-Vial, test tube, or microcentrifuge tube. Constructed from aluminium alloy for optimal thermal conductivity and even heat transfer.
• Reacti-Vial Small Reaction Vials – Internal cone design enables easy sample retrieval, with extra-thick glass walls for clear reaction observation. Suitable for derivative preparation, residue isolation, digestion, hydrolysis, and storage.
• Sealing Options – PTFE/rubber septa for inert sealing, PTFE/silicone septa for resealability, and Mininert valves for preventing evaporation or degradation of sensitive chemicals.
• Reacti-Vial Magnetic Stirrers – PTFE-coated stirring bars that fit the vial’s cone, ideal for suspending insoluble reactants or dissolving sticky residues such as sugar solutions.
• Remote Temperature Probe – PTFE-coated for dry incubations, providing accurate, responsive control of heating functions when calibrated against an independent thermometer.
• PTFE-Coated Needles – Suitable for applications involving strong acids, with Luer-Lok hubs for leak-proof attachment to Reacti-Vap evaporators.
• Vacuum Hydrolysis Tubes – For rapid protein and peptide hydrolysis at temperatures up to 260°C (oven use not above 100°C)

Together, these accessories offer the versatility and reliability needed to maximise the performance of your Reacti-Therm and Reacti-Vap systems.
