*NOTE for European buyers! The Mini-Beadbeater-8 is not CE certified.

Product Description

The Mini-Beadbeater-8 disrupts microbial cells and plant and animal tissue by violently agitating one to eight standard microcentrifuge tubes containing small ceramic beads and disruption buffer. Even resistant samples like yeast, spores or fibrous tissue are completely homogenized in 3-5 minutes in 0.1 to 1 ml of extraction medium. The non-foaming, aerosol-free method preserves enzymes and organelles. In the presence of nucleic acid extraction media such as phenol, Gu-SCN or a commercial kit solution, DNA or RNA is recovered in the highest possible yield. The method is ideal for PAGE, PCR applications and diagnostics using antibody or oligonucleotide probes. Possible sample-to-sample cross contamination is completely eliminated by one time use of low cost vials and beads.

  • Near horizontal, top-to-bottom shaking pattern gives maximum efficiency
  • 100-3200 oscillations/min, variable speed
  • 0-5 minute timer, with auto reset
  • 10 amp, 115 Volt, grounded plug
  • 10' D X 16' W X 12' H, 27 lbs

Other Information
The shaking energies of the Mini-Beadbeater-8 are very high - a prerequisite for rapid cell disruption.  Experience shows that the Mini-Beadbeater-8 will wear out in about 200 hours of use (that's about 30,000 vials later!). A replacement motor/gear assembly costs about $300 and can be installed in the lab with simple tools in about twenty minutes.  Unlike our other products two year warranty, the Mini-Beadbeater-8 has a one year warranty.
