Benchmark BeadBug 6-Position Homogenizer delivers powerful, efficient homogenization for medium-throughput laboratories. Designed to process up to six 2.0 mL samples at once, it features a high-speed, three-dimensional motion that disrupts even tough samples — such as organ tissue and bone — in as little as 45 seconds.
The BeadBug 6 is a compact yet capable unit that builds on the performance of Benchmark's popular BeadBug and BeadBlaster homogenizers. With user-friendly programming and sealed tube processing, this homogenizer ensures contamination-free, reproducible results. Optional adapters expand functionality to support 5.0 mL tubes.
Features:
- Simultaneously processes up to 6 x 2.0 mL tubes
- Three-dimensional shaking motion for fast, effective disruption
- Homogenizes most sample types (including bone) in under 45 seconds
- Sealed tube design eliminates cross-contamination
- Programmable speed, time, cycles, and pause duration
- Last used settings are saved for repeated use
- Optional adapters for 2 x 5.0 mL tubes
- Wide variety of bead types available for different sample needs
