The BeadBug™ sets the performance standard for personal sized cell disruption and lysis instruments.
Developed for samples too tough to be homogenized in a common lab vortexer, the BeadBug provides a convenient and economical alternative to the traditional, over-priced homogenizers on the market today.
With a foot print of just 7 x 8" and a capacity of up to three tubes, the BeadBug is the ideal homogenizing instrument for low to medium throughput laboratories.
Simultaneous homogenization takes place (often within 45 seconds) of up to 3 samples inside the disposable 2 ml screw cap microtubes. The optimized mixing motion causes rapid cell disruption through constant high velocity impact from the hardened micro-beads chosen specifically for your sample type.
Features
- Extremely compact, less than 7" wide
- Mix 1, 2 or 3 tubes simultaneously
- Faster and more effective than tissue grinders
- Extremely powerful mixing for lysis, grinding or homogenization
- Eliminates the cross contamination associated with hand held homogenizers
