The Radleys Discovery Carousel 12 is a versatile, high-throughput parallel reaction station designed for efficient small-scale synthesis, optimization, and screening in research and development laboratories. It enables simultaneous heating, stirring, and reaction control of up to 12 individual reaction tubes, each operating under reproducible and uniform conditions.
Ideal for medicinal chemistry, catalysis research, method development, and academic laboratories, the Discovery Carousel supports a wide range of flask and tube formats and integrates seamlessly with standard hotplate stirrers.
