Geno/Grinder® 2010 – automated tissue homogenizer and cell lyser
The Geno/Grinder® 2010 from Cole Parmer (formerly SPEX SamplePrep) is a high-throughput homogenizer for plant and animal tissue that accommodates up to 6 Deep-Well titer plates and 16 centrifuge tubes. It is specifically designed for rapid cell disruption. Kryotech® accessores are available to store temperature-sensitive samples. This grinder is also recognized as an excellent automatic Axial Extractor and is ideal for QuEChERS.
If you have only a few samples to homogenize, the Genolyte® may be of interest to you.
