HiGro Microplate Cell Incubator


A High-Capacity Microwell Plate
Growth System

Digilab's HiGro® is a high-capacity, incubating shaker designed to accelerate sample growth in microwell plates. This uniquely engineered instrument combines a small shaking orbital, gas flow and temperature control system in a userfriendly, compact layout. Plate-holding cassettes allow for easy loading and unloading.
The convenience and control of the Digilab HiGro system make it the ideal solution for facilities with high-throughput growth needs as well as for laboratories using applications that are best optimized in a microwell format.


Digilab's HiGro® combines orbital shaking, aeration and incubation in a high-capacity cell growth, plasmid growth system. These unique features make sample growth in standard 96 or 384 microwell plates ideal for production sequencing and other downstream applications. When used in conjuction with Microwell Plate Cassettes (instrument comes with 4 Microwell Plate Cassettes standard), HiGro simplifies plate handling, storage and organization.
