OHAUS Bead Genie Bead Mill Homogenizer BH3 (SI-B106AU) - 83041303
The OHAUS Bead Genie Bead Mill Homogenizer (83041303) is a compact yet heavy‑duty homogenizing system designed for NZ laboratories requiring fast, reliable sample disruption.
It uses an aggressive 19 mm vertical reciprocating motion to efficiently lyse cells, extract nucleic acids and homogenise tough biological, plant, soil and microbial samples. Its solid metal construction and efficient DC motor ensure stable, high‑energy agitation without shifting, even inside biosafety cabinets or cold rooms.
The Bead Genie includes four interchangeable tube holders accommodating 1.5/2.0 mL microtubes, 5 mL, 15 mL, 20 mL and 50 mL tubes, enabling broad compatibility with common lab formats. Adjustable digital speed and timer controls support reproducible workflows, while variable RUN/STOP pulsing enhances interval mixing for demanding protocols. Supporting both glass and stainless‑steel beads, the Bead Genie offers NZ labs a versatile, durable and cost‑effective solution for high‑performance bead‑beating applications.
