OHAUS Cell Disruptor Genie for Canadian Laboratories

The OHAUS Cell Disruptor Genie is a compact mechanical bead beater designed for high-speed cell disruption, pellet resuspension, and microtube sample preparation. It uses a patented dual-motion mechanism that combines vortexing and disruption to improve sample-bead contact inside microtubes.

Cambridge Environmental supplies the OHAUS Cell Disruptor Genie to Canadian research, biotechnology, microbiology, food science, environmental, university, and industrial QA/QC laboratories that need a compact alternative to larger homogenizers or ultrasonic disruption systems.

Common Canadian Applications

• Cell disruption and bead-based sample preparation
• Pellet resuspension in microtubes
• Yeast, bacteria, fungi, and tissue sample preparation
• DNA and RNA extraction support workflows
• Protein extraction support workflows
• Microbiology and molecular biology laboratories
• Food science and environmental testing laboratories
• University, teaching, research, and industrial QA/QC labs

Why Choose the OHAUS Cell Disruptor Genie?

The Cell Disruptor Genie is built for laboratories that need aggressive high-speed agitation in a small benchtop footprint. It supports up to 12 microtubes at once and can also be converted into a high-speed vortex mixer by removing the microtube holder and attaching the included pop-off cup.

• Designed for bead-based cell disruption and pellet resuspension
• Patented dual-motion mechanism combines vortex and disruption motion
• Processes up to 12 x 1.5 mL or 2.0 mL microtubes at once
• Compatible with snap-cap and screw-cap microtubes
• Available in analog fixed-speed and digital variable-speed models
• Can be used as a high-speed vortex mixer with the included pop-off cup
• Stable zinc-cast housing with no-walking feet design
• Compatible with cold rooms and incubators within the stated operating range

Model Selection Guide

Which Model Should You Choose?

Choose the Disruptor Genie if your lab needs a simple, fixed-speed bead beater for routine high-speed disruption or resuspension work. This is the more straightforward option when one consistent speed is acceptable.

Choose the Digital Disruptor Genie if your lab needs variable speed control from 1000 to 3000 rpm, digital speed display, adjustable speed alarm, sleep mode, and timer control up to 99 minutes. This is the better choice for repeatable workflows, multiple users, or procedures where speed control matters.

Key Specifications

Beads, Tubes, and Accessories

The Cell Disruptor Genie can be used with compatible glass, stainless steel, and zirconium bead options depending on the sample type. OHAUS lists bead options for bacteria, yeast, fungi, tissue, plant material, fecal samples, soil, sediments, biofilms, and other difficult sample types.

For routine use, confirm your sample type, tube size, bead material, bead size, and required disruption intensity before ordering accessories. Cambridge Environmental can help Canadian buyers compare bead and tube options for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the OHAUS Cell Disruptor Genie used for?

The OHAUS Cell Disruptor Genie is used for high-speed mechanical cell disruption, pellet resuspension, and bead-based microtube sample preparation. It is commonly used in research, microbiology, molecular biology, biotechnology, food science, environmental, and QA/QC laboratories.

What is the difference between the Disruptor Genie and the Digital Disruptor Genie?

The Disruptor Genie is an analog fixed-speed model with a 0 to 15 minute timer. The Digital Disruptor Genie adds variable speed control, red LED display, adjustable speed alarm, sleep mode, and a timer range up to 99 minutes. Choose the digital model if your lab needs more control and repeatability.

How many samples can the Cell Disruptor Genie process at once?

The Cell Disruptor Genie can process up to 12 x 1.5 mL or 2.0 mL microtubes at one time, depending on the sample, tube style, and workflow.

Can this unit also be used as a vortex mixer?

Yes. The microtube holder can be removed and replaced with the included pop-off cup, allowing the unit to be used as a high-speed vortex mixer for single test tubes.

What types of beads can be used with the Cell Disruptor Genie?

Compatible bead options include glass, stainless steel, and zirconium beads. The best bead type and size depends on the sample type and the level of disruption required.

Is the Cell Disruptor Genie suitable for bacteria, yeast, fungi, and tissue samples?

Yes. The unit is designed for difficult bead-based disruption workflows, including bacteria, yeast, fungi, tissue, and other samples that require high-speed agitation.

Can the Cell Disruptor Genie be used in a cold room or incubator?

Yes. The unit is compatible with cold rooms and incubators within the stated operating range of 0°C to 38°C and up to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing.

Which Cell Disruptor Genie model should I choose?

Choose the analog Disruptor Genie if you need simple fixed-speed operation. Choose the Digital Disruptor Genie if you need adjustable speed, digital controls, a longer timer range, and better repeatability across users or workflows.

Can Cambridge help confirm the right setup?

Yes. Cambridge Environmental can help Canadian laboratories compare the analog and digital models and identify related beads, tubes, or accessories based on sample type, tube format, speed control needs, and budget.
