Stomacher lab blenders offer fast, reliable blending and homogenizing of laboratory samples through their unique action by which paddles apply pressure to a sample within a sterile, disposable bag. Contents are blended and homogenized, and deep-seated organisms are effectively washed out. Laboratory samples can be collected, transported, processed, and disposed of without handling. Ideal for processing food microbiology samples; removing viruses and bacteria from tissues and organs; testing sterility of creams, ointments, and dry powders; and removing organisms from swabs, filters, tissue biopsies, and fecal samples. Timer Settings (sample processing time): 30, 60, 120 seconds + continuous. The Stomacher 80 is designed to be space-saving and easily fits inside of a safety cabinet. It has three paddle speeds. Mixing Capacity: 5 to 80ml.
