- What is this thing?!
Trying to document grad school one UA-cam video at a time, from lab equipment to genetics lessons to interviews with other students! Each week is a new view into life as a grad student, and the rollercoaster that is getting a PhD.

Lovely and interesting video. Never thought about using it for mixed drinks.
thank you Alex!!
Thanks for your information.
My Dutch teachers kept referring these things as 'vibrators'... >.
Nice explanation, Alex! Thank you for this funny video! Greetings from Bulgaria :)
Thanks for posting this. :D
This is really cute. I appreciate this type of thing.
Alex, thank you for taking the time during your busy academic schedule to make these videos. I greatly appreciate the effort you put into creating free content.
sorry to be offtopic but does any of you know of a way to get back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot the password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me!
@Bowen Layne instablaster :)
Awesome! Now I want to mix stuff.
Thx!
Awesome with a little history in there too. Moar hardware videos pls!
was expecting a magnetic stirrer[at least in comparison]..as I used in college days. I thought they were cool. This is cleaner, and good even for test tubes, but the mechanism is well just mechanical..
굳~~ 잘보고 잘 배워 갑니다
thanks you gave me a idea how i can mix my coffee in the morning. Who has time to stir now a days
HOLY.... you just might have something there! And to think I got this just to mix my paints for my miniature painting hobby!
Our vortex mixer regularly causes our breaker protected outlets to trip, which is kinda annoying. Fortunately, I don't need it too often. #labproblems
You need more subs! :)
I wonder if these can be used for and water/oil/water emulsions instead of homogenizer-disperser?? actually it's the only device available at my university...Hope someone's gonna answer me (thank you for the video, you got another subscriber)
Damn, now I want to mix drinks with one...
Any idea how to calibrate these things? Or at least check for accuracy in the speed? I was thinking a tachometer like for centrifuge, but I have no idea.
I like how the mixer slowly moved across the counter at the end. My blender moves around like that. You can't just turn it on and walk away.
I have lots of kitchen appliances for mixing things and blending and so on that have those suction cups on the bottom so they stay in place perfectly :D
What if one need to mix for long time? Does a vortex mixer need you to take the sample with your hands or it can work alone with the sample on top?
Can I use this to mix powder instead of buying a full industrial V Blender?
How many times have you walked away only to have the Vortex fall onto the floor?
...But does it feel lice sticking your finger on it when it's on though? (I was always that kid who stuck his face on the cage around my fan because I liked the vibration!)
I call it the shakey thingy.
It looks like your copy is also from the 60's.
whats the best way to clean these? I was thinking an IPA spray
Hah, I've never thought of how to clean one. We generally clean everything in lab with 70% ethanol or Fantastic. Between the two we can tackle most lab jobs...
I wonder, do they make a more compact version you could hide in the seat of a chair? This could be a fun practical joke tool.
I think the Ashley lab are concerned someone will take their stuff.
Someone took my blue light gel box about a year ago and I will never forgive them!
I came here from my new video... wtf
Your's can probably use a fresh set of 'feet' so it will not walk all over the place.
