Whitley A35s at Northern General Hospital

Date: 13^th May 2013

Sheffield Teaching Hospitals Foundation Trust recently purchased two Whitley A35 Anaerobic Workstations.

“The major advantage of the A35 Workstation with instant access porthole system is that the movement of plates in and out of the cabinet is much more efficient and can be performed in smaller batches. This promotes good practice in placing primary cultures in the correct atmosphere in a quicker timescale. There is also the added benefit of being able to read cultures whilst they remain inside the cabinet, if so desired.

At Northern General Hospital in Sheffield we have been using Whitley Workstations for over 30 years. I have to say that as well as being one of the reasons we we were confident in purchasing our latest workstations from Don Whitley Scientific is that the maintenance and call out service provided is exemplary. In fact, all staff members that I have come into contact with, whether in person or on the phone have been a credit to the company.”
