BEADBUG 6

Product catalog summary

Overview: The BeadBug™ 6 is a medium throughput homogenizer designed for efficient bead homogenization, capable of processing up to six samples simultaneously in sealed tubes to prevent cross-contamination. It is part of the Benchmark homogenizer line, which includes the larger BeadBlaster™ 24 and the smaller BeadBug™.

Specifications: The BeadBug 6 can handle 6 x 2.0ml or 2 x 5.0ml tubes with optional adapters. It operates at speeds from 4.00 to 7.00 m/s, with cycle times adjustable from 0 to 90 seconds. The unit supports 1 to 10 cycles with pauses between cycles, and features quick acceleration/deceleration within 2 seconds. It operates quietly at less than 65db and within ambient temperatures of +4° to 45°C. The dimensions are 22x35.5x20.5 cm, and it weighs 9 kg. It is compatible with electrical standards of 100-240V, 50-60 Hz, and comes with a 2-year warranty.

Features: The BeadBug 6 uses a three-dimensional shaking motion combined with beads to efficiently release cellular contents, including nucleic acids and proteins, from various sample types. The device is easy to program, retaining the last used settings for convenience. A range of bead materials and sizes are available to accommodate different sample processing needs.

Ordering Information: The BeadBug 6 (D1036) is available with optional 5ml adapters (D1036-A5). Prefilled tube kits and empty tubes are available in various sizes and materials, including Triple-Pure Zirconium and Stainless Steel beads. Other bead types and bulk beads can be ordered by contacting the supplier.

Additional Products: Other products in the Benchmark Bead Homogenizer family include the BeadBlaster 24 with a 24 x 2.0ml capacity and the BeadBug with a 3 x 2.0ml capacity.

The BeadBug™ 6 joins the large capacity BeadBlaster™ 24 and personal sized BeadBug™ as the newest member of the Benchmark homogenizer line. Like the other members of the Benchmark Microtube Homogenizer family, the 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...
