What is it indicated for?

The Minitube SC-2000 + 2045 temperature control unit is indicated maintaining the temperature of biological material like gametes and embryos at a certain temperature which is essential to cover multiple applications in reproductive medicine, biology and other areas. The only distinguishing feature between the SC-2000 and the SC-2045 is that the inserts on the warming plates of the SC-2045 are at a 45 degree angle from a level horizontal plane, whereas the SC-2000 inserts are vertical to that plane.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA 510(k) statement.
