BeadBug™ 6 Position Homogenizer
The BeadBug™ 6 Position Homogenizer is expertly designed to meet the diverse needs of laboratories, utilizing a three-dimensional shaking motion to effectively disrupt and homogenize a variety of samples. This innovative method, when used with appropriate beads, ensures high-velocity impacts that facilitate rapid extraction of cellular contents, including vital nucleic acids and proteins.
Key Features:
- Fast, efficient bead homogenization for optimal results.
- Simultaneously processes up to 6 samples, enhancing throughput.
- Versatile enough for all sample types, from soft tissue to bone.
- Compatible with 2.0ml or 5.0ml tubes for flexible laboratory applications.
- A variety of bead materials and sizes are readily available to suit different processing requirements.
The BeadBug™ 6 is capable of homogenizing diverse sample types, from cultured cells to organ tissues and bone, typically within just 45 seconds. Users will appreciate the straightforward programming; simply set the desired speed, time, and the number of cycles—along with optional pause intervals—then press start. Notably, the last programmed settings are retained in memory for efficient repeated operations.
Sealed tubes in the BeadBug™ 6 effectively prevent cross-contamination between samples. Loading is simple: add your samples and beads to the tubes, place them in the unit, and initiate the homogenization process. Following this, a brief centrifuge spin allows for easy removal of the lysate using a pipette.
Perfectly suited for medium-throughput laboratories, the BeadBug™ 6 allows for simultaneous processing of up to six samples in 2.0ml tubes, while optional adapters enable the use of 5.0ml tubes as well. A comprehensive range of bead materials and sizes are available in prefilled tubes and bulk to accommodate all your laboratory's sample processing needs.
