BeadBug™ Microtube Homogenizer

Powerful - for mixing, lysis, grinding or homogenization
Individual homogenization tubes - avoids cross contamination between samples
Multitask - homogenize 1-3 samples simultaneously

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 2 mL 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 7 x 8 in., the BeadBug™ is the ideal homogenizing instrument for low to medium throughput laboratories.
