BioSpec Products Mini-Beadbeater-Plus
The new Mini-BeadBeater-Plus is a high-energy bead-mill designed to violently agitate up to a half gram sample of biological material sealed inside a 2 mL microcentrifuge vial containing tiny glass, zirconia or steel lysing beads. The grinding action of the beads (beadbeating) rapidly disrupts microorganisms and plant and animal tissue in 5-90 seconds. Being an upgrade of the venerable MiniBeadbeater-1, new features include a programmable timer, a more powerful brushless motor and 115/230 VAC compatibility.
