Benchmark Scientific D1030 BeadBug 3 Homogenizer - 3 Tube Capacity

The Benchmark Scientific D1030 BeadBug™ 3 is the newest member of the Benchmark homogenizer line. Like the other members of the Benchmark Microtube Homogenizer family, the Benchmark Scientific D1030 BeadBug 3 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 Benchmark Scientific D1030 BeadBug 3, 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.

Sealed tubes prevent cross contamination in the Benchmark Scientific D1030 BeadBug 3. Samples are simply loaded into the tubes along with the beads and placed in the unit for processing. After homogenization, tubes are spun briefly in a centrifuge, and the lysate removed with a pipette.
