BeadBug™ 6 Homogenizer

The BeadBug™ is a high energy benchtop homogenizer that sets the performance standard for personal sized cell disruption and lysis instruments.

Simultaneous homogenization of up to 6 samples takes place (often within 45 seconds) 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.

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 up to six tube capacity and a footprint of just 9 x 14 in., the BeadBug™ is
the ideal homogenizing instrument for low to medium throughput laboratories.

BeadBug™ Microtube Homogenizer

  • Powerful - for mixing, lysis, grinding or homogenization
  • Individual homogenization tubes - avoids cross contamination between samples

The BeadBug™ is a high energy benchtop homogenizer for individualized sample cell disruption to whole tissue homogenization. Simultaneous homogenization of up to 3 samples inside disposable 2ml screw cap microtubes can be optimized for grinding for 3 seconds to 3 minutes. The mixing motion causes rapid disruption through constant high velocity impact from the hardened micro-beads chosen specifically for your sample type.


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 up to a 3 tube capacity and a tiny footprint of 7x8 in., the BeadBug™ is the ideal homogenizing instrument for low to medium throughput laboratories.

Beadblaster™ 24 Microtube Homogenizer

  • Fast, efficient homogenization in about 35 seconds
  • For all sample types, from soft tissue to bone
  • Mix up to 24 tubes simultaneously
  • Sealed 2.0 mL tubes-eliminates cross contamination

 

The Beadblaster™ 24 completely lyses, grinds, and homogenizes a broad variety of biological samples. Even the most difficult and resistant samples are fully homogenized, often in 35 seconds or less.

 

The stainless steel tube carrier subjects up to 24 samples to an optimized, high-speed, 3D motion, producing high energy impacts between the samples and microbeads that release cellular contents. After homogenization, samples can be centrifuged and the supernatant collected for further processing.

 

Operating parameters for the Beadblaster™ 24 are set and displayed digitally. To protect fragile, heat-sensitive samples, the unit can be programmed to operate in shortened consecutive cycles with a rest period in between. Up to 50 such programs can be stored in memory and recalled for future use. A transparent lid allows for visualization of samples and features a mechanical lid lock that prevents opening when the Beadblaster™ 24 is in operation. A brushless motor reduces motor noise and provides maintenance-free operation. See below for kits for use with the Beadblaster™ 24.

The BULLET BLENDER® enables you to homogenize, disrupt, or lyse up to 24 tissue or cell culture samples at a time. Load the samples into standard polypropylene tubes, then place them in the BULLET BLENDER. The "bullets" in the instrument vigorously strike all of the tubes and homogenize your sample in minutes. 

Includes:

  • Bullet Blender 5 Gold
  • Operator’s Manual
  • Power supply
  • Basic starter kit which includes:
    • Bead Sample Pack contains centrifuge tubes of several different types of beads
    • Spoon for dispensing beads
    • Sample pack of 5 mL Eppendorf tubes


Consistent and High Yield Results

The BULLET BLENDER homogenizer prepares up to 24 samples in just minutes. All of the samples are automatically homogenized in the same manner, with high yields, so there is very little variation from sample to sample.

No Cross-Contamination or Sample Loss

There are no probes or blades to cause cross contamination or sample loss, which also means there are no parts to clean between runs. The sample tubes are kept closed and self-contained during homogenization.

Samples Stay COOL

No cool down required. The Bullet Blender homogenizers use very little power due to the unique, patented design. There is very little heating of the samples because the sample tubes vibrate vigorously in air, keeping them cool, rather than being subjected to frictional heating as the tubes rub against the walls of a holder. Also, because the motor does not need to agitate any heavy platforms or plates, it is small and will last for many years.

So Easy To Use

Simply place your sample, beads and buffer in standard tubes, and load the tubes into the BULLET BLENDER homogenizer. Tune the extent of disruption by adjusting the run time and speed. Afterwards, place the sample tubes in a centrifuge to separate the lysate. No special holders are needed. There are no clamp plates or locking rings to fiddle with.


Risk Free Purchase

BULLET BLENDER homogenizers come with a 30 day money back guarantee and a 2 year warranty. The simple, reliable design enables the BULLET BLENDER to sell for one half the price of other agitation based instruments, yet provides an easier, quicker, cooler technique.
