| The BULLET BLENDER™ enables you to homogenize, disrupt, or lyse 24 tissue or cell culture samples at a time. Load the samples into polypropylene microcentrifuge tubes, then place them in the BULLET BLENDER™.The "bullets" in the instrument vigorously strike all the sample tubes while in operation. The Bullet Blender™ is now available with Air Cooling™ to preserve your sample quality. |

Genomic DNA samples in agarose gel stained with ethidium bromide
Lanes 1-4 = Tobacco leaf DNA
 = phage Hind II digest
Lanes 5-8=Rice leaf DNA samples

Total RNA gel. RNA Integrity Number = 8.5

SDS-PAGE gel stained with Coomassie Blue
wc = whole cell
sf = soluble fraction
Left two lanes control Right two lanes induced |
| Samples Stay COOL
The instrument uses very little power due to the unique, patented design, so there is very little heat build up in the instrument or inside the sample tubes. It uses a small DC motor to agitate the individual tubes, not ultrasonics. Also, because the motor does not need to agitate any heavy platforms or plates,it is small and will last for years.
Convenient to Use
Simply place your cells or tissue, and optionally some beads, in standard tubes, and load the tubes into the BULLET BLENDER™. Set the duration (typically several minutes) and speed (vigorousness). There are no probes to clean. It is much quieter than a sonicator and the samples stay cooler, too!
