Glass Bead Dispenser

This Glass Bead Dispenser is a functional and user-friendly tool designed to facilitate the uniform distribution of glass beads used for cell disruption into small reaction tubes. Glass beads are stored in a 50ml tube ("Falcon", “Greiner”..).

To use, simply attach a 1000µl pipette tip to the output of the dispenser. It is recommended to slightly widen the opening of the pipette tip with a simple cut. This modification ensures that beads smoothly fall into the reaction tube. 

Use a small bolt and nut to keep all parts in place.
