OHAUS Bead Genie
The OHAUS Bead Genie™ is ideal for lysing, extraction, or homogenization, utilizing an aggressive vertical mixing motion. Comes with 4 holders to hold vertically 12x microtubes (1.5 or 2.0 mL), 6x 15 or 5mL tubes, 3x 50 or 20 mL tubes, and 12x microtubes (1.5 or 2.0 mL) horizontally.
