The Benchmark 2.0ml conical bottom microcentrifuge tubes are ideal for bead homogenization and sample storage.

• Sterile, PCR clean, with screw cap and sealing ring for leak-proof closure

• Reinforced design 

• Sold in packs of 500 

These tubes are perfect for research labs requiring reliable and efficient sample processing.

The efficiency of bead homogenization relies on several factors, including the material and size of the beads. Benchmark offers a variety of bead options to meet a wide range of samples Silica (glass) homogenizer beads are ready to use – acid washed and heat treated to remove contaminants and render them nuclease and protease free. 0.1mm diameter beads are the best choice for homogenization of gram positive and negative bacteria. 0.5mm diameter beads are used to homogenize bacteria, fungi, spores, molds and small yeasts. 1.0mm diameter beads can be used to homogenize fungi, spores, algae and larger yeasts. Triple-Pure™ Zirconium Homogenizer beads are ready to use and certified nuclease and protease free. The tubes are filled in a process that is tested by qPCR to be free of stray DNA. (6mm satellites are acid washed and heat treated, but not certified.)

BeadBug 6 utilizes a three dimensional shaking motion to disrupt samples. This motion, when combined with beads of the appropriate size and material, causes high velocity impacts with the sample and is an extremely fast and efficient method for releasing cellular contents, including nucleic acids and proteins. Many different sample types, from cells in culture to organ tissues and bone can be homogenized in the BeadBug 6, most within 45 seconds. Programming the unit is very simple – just set the speed, time, number of cycles and pause between cycles, then press start. For convenience, the last programmed parameters remain in memory for repeated runs.

The BeadBug™ 3 is a high energy benchtop homogenizer that sets the performance standard for personal sized cell disruption and lysis instruments. Simultaneous homogenization of up to 3 samples takes place (often within 45 seconds) inside the disposable 2ml 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.

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 BeadBlaster™ 24R is a highly efficient bead homogenizer with built-in refrigeration to protect temperature-sensitive molecules from heat degradation and denaturation.
