Bullet Blender® Homogenizers
By Next AdvanceThe 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. A variety of models are available to suit your needs!
- Consistent and High Yield Results: Bullet Blender® 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: 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® uses 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.
- Easy to Use: Simply place your sample, beads and buffer in standard tubes, and load the tubes into the 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.
