Other Accessories

Foam Blocker

FoamBlocker reduces foaming during homogenization. 

Dry Ice Scoop

A Wholly Scoop comes with every Gold and Gold+ Bullet Blender. The holes in the scoop enable you to load dry ice without the “powder”.  Too much powder could clog the flow of the cold air past the samples. 

Magnetic Tube Rack

The Magnetic Tube Rack is a great assist when working with magnetic beads, such as for downstream extraction of nucleic acids.
