LAB Microbiology Electric Bunsen Burner

The StemAids LAB Microbiology Electric Bunsen Burner is a flameless laboratory heating device designed as a safe and efficient alternative to traditional gas Bunsen burners. It is suitable for microbiology labs, biology labs, chemistry labs, school laboratories, college laboratories, research laboratories, pharmaceutical labs, and institutional science training environments where open flame or gas supply is not preferred.

Product Description

The StemAids LAB Microbiology Electric Bunsen Burner provides high-temperature electric heating for sterilization support, microbiology work, glasswork, test tube heating, and routine laboratory applications. It replaces the need for butane, propane, or natural gas burners while offering focused heat suitable for laboratory procedures requiring controlled and repeatable heating.

With a core heating temperature of up to 880°C and an air-flow temperature of 750°C, this electric burner is suitable for microbiology operations such as flaming flask necks, handling inoculating loops, pouring agar plates, and working with liquid media. It is also useful for bending borosilicate glass tubes, making capillaries, heating containers, and demonstrating combustion or ignition under supervised laboratory conditions.
