Southern Sun Biosystems Inc.


	Liquid Lab Shelf™ Southern Sun’s thin-film, mass-flow liquid tissue culture system is a cutting edge plant growth system that increases the plant’s sucrose uptake and transpiration while decreasing the lab’s labor and overhead costs. The system has proven to be effective in growing a broad range of plants in liquid without the complications of typical bioreactors used in temporary immersion systems (TIS).

	The Rocker Kit™ Southern Sun has created a Liquid Lab™ Rocker Kit test system for side by side comparison tials with your current tissue culture or somatic embryogenesis system. The Liquid Lab Rocker Kit is a 4.2’ x 2.3’ x 2.2’ (1.25 meters x .75 meters x .67 meters) test system that weighs 50lbs. (22.7 kilos) and is readily shippable.

	Liquid Lab Vessel™ Southern Sun has created a light weight polycarbonite plastic rocker kit vessel that is specifically sized and designed to work efficiently in the Liquid Lab®. The vessel is autoclavable, has a built in dust shield and can be both a side and top loader. The vessel includes a microporous patch for gas exchange along with a septaport for the addition and testing of fluids. The vessel is 10.5” x 4” x 4” (27 x 10 x 10 cm) and includes a lid, patch and septaport and holds as much as 8-15 baby food jars, depending on the plant.

	Liquid Lab Patch™ Southern Sun has developed a breathable patch with a 0.2 microporous membrane that enables gas exchange in virtually any type of tissue culture vessel. The patch is bonded to a non-woven Polyester® for strength and is durable enough to withstand multiple passes through an autoclave. The Liquid Lab Patch® is made to withstand the rigors of a tissue culture lab with a Gurley airflow of 17 seconds/100cc/SI, water intrusion pressure of +50psi and a burst strength of 21psi.
