Product Description
Masticator paddle blenders enable thorough homogenization of samples while isolating them from any possible contamination. The Masticator's high quality enduring motors ensure a safe and efficient homogenization. Food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and clinical laboratories that seek for reliable homogenization that is cross contamination free enjoy this solution.
Masticator blenders disperse solid and semisolid samples by applying pressure to samples within sterile, disposable bags (Masticator mixers accommodate most commercially available sterile bags) with paddles that drive a squashing action while moving the sample from side to side. This key step in sample preparation ensures homogenous distribution of microorganisms throughout the diluent.
Homogenization is produced through a combination of crushing and stirring, bringing out seated organisms from tissues, organs, powders, creams, ointments, etc. and removing organisms from swabs, tissue biopsies, filters, fecal samples and more.
80 ml Masticator compact models appeal to clinical and life science labs involved in small sample tissue homogenization (less than 10g), and to industrial QC labs that process small weight samples (less than 10g).
SYSTEM HIGHLIGHTS
