VWR VDI 12 Handheld Tissue Homogenizer with Variable Speed and High Shear Output
Product Description
The VWR VDI 12 Homogenizer is a handheld, variable-speed tissue homogenizer designed for robust sample preparation in molecular diagnostics and biotechnology research. With a speed range of 8000 to 30000 rpm and a powerful 125W motor, it delivers a high shear effect to efficiently reduce processing time for biological samples.
Key technical features include:
- Capacity to handle stirring volumes from 0.1 to 100 ml (water equivalent)
- Compatibility with liquid viscosities up to 5000 mPas, supporting viscous biological suspensions and solutions
- Compact dimensions (12x4x2 inches) and lightweight design (1 lb), ensuring ergonomic handling during applications such as RNA and protein assays, DNA/RNA blot analysis, PCR sample preparation, wastewater extraction, and tissue decomposition
- Overload protection safeguards the motor under high stress workloads, improving reliability in continuous bioprocessing workflows
- Quick-release coupling facilitates rapid interchange of dispersing elements, optimizing workflow efficiency for molecular cloning and synthetic biology experiments
Operating on 115V, 50/60 Hz, this overhead homogenizer is ideal for researchers and clinical scientists involved in gene editing, molecular diagnostics, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines requiring precise, high-shear homogenization. Its versatility makes it a core instrument for bioprocessing labs focused on live-cell imaging sample prep and fluorescence analysis.
The VWR VDI 12 supports critical sample disruption tasks popular among molecular biology and biotechnology researchers, enhancing reproducibility in downstream applications.
Fully tested and delivered with standard warranty support, this homogenizer meets rigorous laboratory demands for performance and durability in biomedical engineering and synthetic biology research environments.
