Update | Still together against COVID-19

JULABO systems are not only used in medical research for new vaccines or drugs. Exact temperature control is also essential in many other areas, for example in the product development of tests for the SARS-CoV-2 virus or for reactor temperature control in the production of vaccines in biotech and pharmaceutical companies.

JULABO devices are now even being used in new types of mobile mini-factories in order to be able to produce vaccines directly in the hotspots on site. Vaccines directed against COVID-19 contain information about important characteristics of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. With the current so-called mRNA vaccines, this information consists of part of the blueprint for certain surface proteins of the virus. With the help of these surface proteins, the virus can penetrate human cells and multiply there. In the new mini-factories, the mRNA vaccines are produced using techniques that originally came from 3D printing.

In addition, many JULABO products have been used for medical applications in laboratories, hospitals and clinics for decades. In addition to sample temperature control, incubation or temperature control of cultures, this also includes specialized applications such as the storage and preparation of blood plasma or the storage of chemicals.

All JULABO employees are working with focus and enthusiasm for this goal despite the challenging conditions. As such, we continue to offer you the same services as we always have.
