Bullet Blender® Tissue Homogenizer

The Bullet Blender^® is recognized as one of the top homogenizers worldwide since 2006. It uses bursts of vigorous agitation rather than the incessant agitation technology of our competitors. It has the power to homogenize even the toughest of samples. Convection cooling is also a key feature in our homogenizers which preserves the integrity of your samples.

Lysis Kits

Our bead lysis kits are developed to provide optimal homogenization facilitating the highest yields with the highest quality of biomolecule extractions. Most kits contain an assortment of beads to provide quick and thorough homogenization of every sample type.

Beads

Beads are available RNase-free or non-sterile and also in sample bead packs for different types of applications. Please see our recommended protocols to determine the appropriate beads for your sample.

Tubes

We recommend specific tubes that are verified to work with the Bullet Blender. Next Advance does not recommend other tubes. Other tubes may have different dimensions and prevent thorough homogenization. They may also crack and leak during vigorous agitation.

Spoons

These volumetric spoons are helpful when you need to add beads to sample tubes. Since beads are generally added to tubes based on volume, our variety of spoons sizes will to help measure the right amount.

FoamBlocker

FoamBlocker is an antifoam reagent that controls excess frothing or foaming of samples during homogenization. Use FoamBlocker at 1 – 2% final concentration to reduce foaming during homogenization.

Tube Adapters

Tube adapters enable you to use microcentrifuge tubes in Bullet Blenders designed for 5 mL snap-cap tubes: the Bullet Blender 5E Pro (BT5E), Bullet Blender 5E Gold+ (BB5EAUP) and former 5 mL tube models (excluding the discontinued 5 mL screw-cap instrument). These adapters are available for 1.5 mL screw-cap tubes (SLV2A), 1.5 mL snap-cap tubes (SLV1E5A) or as a bundle of both types (SLV2ML).

Contact Plates

Contact plates are made for microcentrifuge tube model Bullet Blenders and can be swapped out to allow for the use of either snap-cap or screw-cap tubes. Matching of the correct contact plate to the tube you are using is necessary for successful homogenization.

Dry Ice Scoop

The dry ice scoop made by Next Advance will help filter fines and snow from your dry ice to optimize cooling in Bullet Blender 24 Gold+ (BB24AUP), Bullet Blender 5E Gold+ (BB5EAUP), Bullet Blender 50 Gold+ (BB50AUP) and former Gold model Bullet Blenders.
