Abstract

The growth of cell cultures and bacteria plays a key role in biological research, allowing investigation into biology, biochemistry, physiology, and cell metabolism. Shaker tables are used to promote cell culture, bacterial growth, and mix solutions. This is achieved through linear, orbital, and double orbital motion of the specimens. Most shaker tables can only produce one or two of these three desired motions, our product can produce all three. The Dragonhunter provides testing capabilities to determine the amount of growth cells have using optical density and fluorescent intensity measurements. The Dragonhunter provides a product that is highly compatible and accessible, enhancing the experience of its users. Dragonfly Dynamics utilizes advanced software and electronic techniques to develop shaker tables. Leveraging our proficiencies in the electronic and software realm, a unique product with no close competitors will be born. This product supplies the user with unique features that are unparalleled in the market, the ability to test the growth of individually selected cells, a product that is compact and concise, and self-sufficient to successfully run necessary tasks.
