Product Overview:
Polylab Micro Pestles are precision tools designed for effective grinding and homogenizing of small-volume samples directly inside microcentrifuge tubes. Molded from high-quality, chemically inert polypropylene (PP), these pestles deliver excellent chemical resistance, durability, and ease of use in biological, molecular, and clinical labs.
Each micro pestle is carefully shaped with a smooth, rounded tip that fits snugly into 1.5 ml and 2.0 ml microcentrifuge tubes, ensuring efficient and thorough mixing without scratching or damaging the tube walls. The ergonomic handle provides a secure grip, giving users precise control during sample processing.
Fully autoclavable at 121°C, Polylab Micro Pestles are designed for safe sterilization and reuse, helping maintain contamination-free workflows. Lightweight yet shatterproof, these pestles are an ideal alternative to fragile glass rods or disposable tools.
Perfect for DNA extraction, tissue grinding, enzyme assays, and other lab protocols where small-volume sample preparation is required.
Pair your pestle with Polylab Microcentrifuge Tubes for a complete sample processing setup.
