Save time and increase efficiency by processing multiple samples in minutes, eliminating the need for slow, manual grinding methods. The HG-600 Geno/Grinder 2010 is equipped with an adjustable clamp that accommodates a full range of sample vials from 2 mL to 50 mL centrifuge tubes or deep-well titer plates. A full range of pre-loaded sample vials makes setup quick and easy.
User-friendly and easy to operate touchscreen can be tilted for better viewing. Controls allow you to program and save up to 500 protocols, ensuring repeatability. Protocols can be easily labeled, saved, recalled, and exported via USB. The unit is equipped with an administrative lockout (passcode) which allows you to restrict user access to specific protocols. The double-locking lid provides safe operation, the sound insulation the suspension system ensures quiet, vibration-free operation.
A large observation window and interior LED lighting improves visibility and simplifies monitoring. The quick-release adjustable clamp makes loading and unloading vials or titer plates hassle-free.
The vertically oscillating motion of the unit is designed to effectively disrupt cellular materials enabling the unit to be used to prepare sample tissue for extractions of nucleic acid, proteins, and other constituents by agitating the tissue, steel balls or beads and a lysis agent together in each well of the titer plate, tube or vial.
The Cole-Parmer® SamplePrep Geno/Grinder handles a variety of sample types including seeds, stems, roots, leaves, and animal tissue. The samples can be processed with or without reagents in approximately 60 seconds or less. Optional Kryo-Tech® accessories keep temperature-sensitive samples stable.
With its new design and upgraded features, the HG-600 Geno/Grinder® 2010 is built to make sample preparation easier, faster, and more reliable.
