Chitozen was developed and manufactured in France by Idylle Labs

The Centrifuge Kit includes four elements: a clamp, an adapter, a magnetic lid, and a rack.

Chitozen is used to image bacteria both still and alive under the microscope, or it can be used to perform long-term imaging of bacteria. It can also be used if you want to change the growth condition (e.g. antibiotics, chemicals, inhibitors) during the experiment and directly observe, in real-time, the bacteria new comportment under the microscope.
