Consolidated Sterilizer Systems to Showcase X1 Control System at 69th AALAS National Meeting Written by: Mike Peters October 1, 2018, (BILLERICA, Mass.) – Consolidated Sterilizer Systems (CSS), a leading designer and manufacturer of high quality, high performance laboratory autoclaves, is excited to announce that it will have a booth at the 69th AALAS National Meeting Oct. 28–Nov.1 in Baltimore, Md. The American Association for Laboratory Animal Science (AALAS) is a membership association of professionals employed around the world in academia, government and private industry who are dedicated to the humane care and treatment of laboratory animals, as well as the quality research that leads to scientific gains that benefit people and animals. Since 1950, the AALAS has hosted the AALAS National Meeting — the largest annual gathering for individuals, academic communities, research institutions, government organizations and commercial companies to come together and discuss production, use and care of laboratory animals. The five-day-long event includes workshops, lectures, poster sessions, exhibits and an awards presentation for professional and technical excellence in laboratory animal science. Conference attendees can also test out Consolidated’s line of cloud-enabled steam autoclaves. Thanks to a unique partnership with TetraScience, an IoT company, Consolidated autoclaves are able to connect to the internet, thus enabling scientists, lab managers and facilities to monitor their autoclaves and download sterilization data from any internet-connected device. “The AALAS conference is always a great opportunity to bring our innovative line of autoclaves and steam sterilizers to a broader audience,” said Arthur Trapotsis, CEO of Consolidated Sterilizer Systems. “This year we’re especially excited to showcase our X1 Controller — we think its immensely intuitive user interface will be particularly appealing to the life science community.” Feel free to contact us with any questions you might have before, during or after the conference.
