Stainless Steel Beads 

Stainless steel beads are ideal for homogenizing biological samples. Due to their high density, they are suitable for homogenizing tough and soft samples or for special applications such as bacterial isolation. This blend of beads has diameters from 0.9 mm to 11 mm. Stainless Steel UFO Beads are also available!

RNase-free stainless steel beads undergo a special cleaning process. They are guaranteed and certified to be RNase-free. RNase-free stainless steel beads are sold by the 4 mL package.   
 

Stainless Steel UFO Beads

Stainless steel beads can be used for homogenization of touch samples or for special applications such as bacterial isolation. Cone beads (UFO beads) have a special shape that is great for cutting through particularly fibrous or resilient material.

Cone beads are available in 3.5 mm and 5.6 mm diameters in either bulk packaging (50 mL tubes) or in an RNase-free option (10 mL pack size). These beads are for use only in 5 mL and 50 mL tubes within the appropriate Bullet Blender homogenizer.
 

Glass Beads

Glass beads are ideal for the homogenization of biological samples. Due to the low density of the material, it is suitable for the homogenization of soft tissues and easy-to-lyse cell suspensions. Perfect for research that demands precision and reliability.

RNase-free glass beads undergo a special cleaning process. They are guaranteed and certified to be RNase-free.

Zirconium Oxide Beads

Zirconium oxide beads are ideal for the homogenization of biological samples. Due to the lower density of the material, it is suitable for the homogenization of softer samples, such as brain or kidney tissue. Autoclavable in dry cycle.

RNase-free zirconium oxide beads undergo a special cleaning process. They are guaranteed and certified to be RNase-free.
