Description
The BioCoupler ™ mixes, wets, agitates, coats, and moves the propagules about. It provides a high humidity, filtered air and gas exchange. It does all of this without troublesome plumbing, timers, valves, etc. And, electricity is not required. It has an integral vent hole covered by a long lasting microporous air filter with adjustable vanes that restrict the plant propagules in the top jar from falling into the liquid containing jar below. If needed, a fine mesh can be placed between the vanes but this is not normally needed.
Product Overview
The Biocoupler™ couples together any two, standard mason jars with a 70-G450 finish and ranging in volumes from 8 liquid ounces (237 ml) to 32 liquid ounces (947ml).
Introducing the BioCoupler ™ Temporary Immersion Bioreactor
We now have the answer to the problems and drawbacks of traditional temporary immersion bioreactor systems (TIBs). The patent-pending BioCoupler™ meets all the basic requirements and accomplishes all the needed tasks for a fraction of the cost of the traditional TIBs, takes up little shelf space in the grow room, and is very easy to use and handle.
There is no need to put your valuable propagules in large vats, tanks, or tubs. With those, the complexity of use and higher risk of loss if anything goes wrong is too great. Every part can be autoclaved at the standard 121C temperature, or, they can be chemical or gas sterilized if needed.
The New and Improved Biocoupler™
Biocoupler™ is the simplest temporary immersion bioreactor. It couples/connects two mason jars (or any glass jars) with an integrated filter to facilitate a smooth medium flow.
It also contains a microporous vent filter that allows pressure equalization to atmospheric pressure, helping prevent contamination. The device is more efficient space-wise and time-wise, compared to other currently available TIB systems. Further, the Biocoupler™ not only can be used by hobbyists, but also by large-scale plant businesses.

Efficiency
I've been using the BioCoupler for the past six months in our lab, and I can confidently say it has exceeded all my expectations. As a biotechnology researcher, I am always on the lookout for innovative tools that can enhance our experimental efficiency and accuracy. The BioCoupler has been a game-changer in this regard.
