Product Introduction

The HD-AN200 Intelligent Anaerobic and Microaerophilic Culture System is designed to generate controlled anaerobic, microaerophilic, carbon dioxide, and special oxygen concentration environments for microbial isolation and culture.

It is suitable for laboratories that need stable gas-controlled culture conditions for anaerobic bacteria, microaerophilic bacteria, and microorganisms requiring special oxygen levels. The system is widely used in food safety testing, drinking water testing, microbiology laboratories, pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical quality control, environmental monitoring, agriculture, animal husbandry, and scientific research.

The HD-AN200 is especially suitable for the detection and culture of Campylobacter jejuni, hemolytic streptococcus, Bifidobacterium, lactic acid bacteria, Shigella, Clostridium perfringens, and other microorganisms that require anaerobic or microaerophilic culture conditions.

Working Principle

The HD-AN200 system uses a vacuum replacement and exhaust principle to control the gas environment inside the culture jar.

After the system starts, it automatically detects the local atmospheric pressure and records the initial value. Based on this value, the system controls vacuum extraction, gas replacement, and pressure changes inside the culture jar. This process allows the instrument to accurately generate the required oxygen concentration environment.

The system can create:

  • Anaerobic environment with 0% oxygen concentration
  • Microaerophilic environment with 6% oxygen concentration
  • Campylobacter culture environment
  • Carbon dioxide culture environment
  • Customized special oxygen concentration environments

This controlled gas generation method helps laboratories improve microbial culture stability and reduce manual operation errors.

Main Applications

The HD-AN200 Intelligent Anaerobic and Microaerophilic Culture System can be used for microbial separation, culture, and testing in multiple laboratory fields.

Typical applications include:

  • Food safety microbiological testing
  • Drinking natural mineral water testing
  • Anaerobic bacterial culture
  • Microaerophilic bacterial culture
  • Special oxygen concentration microbial culture
  • Cell culture under controlled gas conditions
  • Pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical microbiology testing
  • Environmental microbiology testing
  • Agricultural and animal husbandry microbiology testing
  • Research and teaching laboratories

It can be used for organisms and testing targets required by food safety testing standards, including Campylobacter jejuni, hemolytic streptococcus, Bifidobacterium, lactic acid bacteria, Shigella, and Clostridium perfringens in drinking natural mineral water.

System Functions

Anaerobic Culture Environment

The system can generate a 0% oxygen anaerobic environment, making it suitable for strict anaerobic bacteria and microorganisms that require oxygen-free culture conditions.

Microaerophilic Culture Environment

The HD-AN200 can generate a 6% oxygen microaerophilic environment. This is suitable for microorganisms such as Campylobacter and other bacteria that grow under low-oxygen conditions.

Special Oxygen Concentration Control

In addition to standard anaerobic and microaerophilic modes, the system can generate special oxygen concentration environments according to different microbial culture requirements.

Self-Check Function

After startup, the system automatically detects the local atmospheric pressure and obtains the initial pressure value. This helps the system calculate accurate gas replacement conditions when generating different oxygen concentrations.

Large Touch Screen Operation

The instrument is equipped with a large color touch screen. Different functions are displayed in different colors, and the local atmospheric pressure can be shown in real time. Operators can complete the operation through the touch interface without physical buttons.

Fast Environment Generation

The system can quickly generate anaerobic and microaerophilic culture environments, helping laboratories shorten preparation time and improve daily testing efficiency.

One-Click Culture Mode

The HD-AN200 supports one-click generation of anaerobic, microaerophilic, Campylobacter, and carbon dioxide culture concentrations. Operators do not need to set complex parameters manually, which reduces training difficulty and operation risk.

Multi-Jar Mode

The system is equipped with multiple channels and can control several culture jars at the same time. This avoids waiting during the gas generation process and reduces frequent manual replacement of culture jars.

Built-in Waste Gas Treatment

The built-in waste gas treatment device can automatically process harmful gases discharged during operation, helping reduce laboratory contamination and improve working safety.

Core Components

The HD-AN200 system includes the system main unit, culture jar, pressure reducing valve, anaerobic catalyst, and anaerobic mixed gas.

System Main Unit

The main unit controls system self-checking, vacuum extraction, gas replacement, pressure adjustment, culture mode selection, and program operation.

Culture Jar

The system is supplied with transparent culture jars. The clear jar body makes it easy for users to observe culture status during laboratory operation. Each culture jar can support different culture applications.

Pressure Reducing Valve

The pressure reducing valve is used to regulate gas source pressure. When adjusting the valve, the instrument displays the gas source pressure in real time, so the operator does not need to rely only on the pointer gauge of the valve.

Anaerobic Catalyst

The system includes a reusable anaerobic catalyst to help the instrument achieve a 0% oxygen anaerobic environment. The catalyst can be reused and does not generate chemical waste, making it suitable for routine laboratory use.

Anaerobic Mixed Gas

The system is configured with anaerobic mixed gas to support the generation of required culture environments for anaerobic and microaerophilic microorganisms.

Culture Jar Options

The HD-AN200 supports seven or more culture jar specifications. Different jar types can be selected according to sample volume, culture method, and testing target.

Culture Jar TypeCapacity / Application
Small Culture JarHolds 6 pieces of 90 mm culture dishes
Medium Culture JarHolds 12 pieces of 90 mm culture dishes
Double Culture JarHolds 24 pieces of 90 mm culture dishes
Campylobacter-Specific Culture JarHolds 8 double-well Campylobacter culture plates and 8 enrichment tubes
Microbial Identification Culture JarHolds 4 ELISA plates, cell culture plates, or identification strip culture plates
Shigella-Specific Culture JarHolds 10 culture bags
Large Culture JarHolds 36 pieces of 90 mm culture dishes, or four 250 ml Erlenmeyer flasks, or 8 homogenized sample bags

This flexible culture jar configuration allows laboratories to select suitable culture containers for food testing, water testing, microbial identification, enrichment culture, and research applications.

Quality Control Program

Each time the system generates the required gas environment, it performs five key quality control checks on the culture jar and gas pathway:

  1. Gas source pressure check
  2. Pipeline connection check
  3. Culture jar sealing check
  4. Culture jar lid sealing check
  5. Catalyst activity check

These checks help ensure that the culture jar is properly sealed and that the gas environment can remain stable during microbial incubation.

Detection and Culture Workflow

A typical HD-AN200 workflow includes:

  1. Prepare culture dishes, enrichment tubes, culture bags, or culture plates
  2. Select the appropriate culture jar according to the sample type
  3. Place the samples into the transparent culture jar
  4. Connect the culture jar to the system channel
  5. Select anaerobic, microaerophilic, Campylobacter, CO₂, or custom oxygen concentration mode
  6. Start the one-click gas environment generation program
  7. The system performs pressure, pipeline, sealing, and catalyst checks
  8. The required culture gas environment is generated automatically
  9. Transfer the culture jar to the incubator for microbial culture
  10. Complete culture observation, testing, and result recording

This workflow is designed to simplify gas environment preparation and improve repeatability in microbial culture testing.
