Vortex mixers are commonly used in laboratories to mix small liquid volumes for cell disruption or homogenization. The analog or digital machines precisely control the operational speed and time to achieve reproducible results. Capable of testing single or multiple samples simultaneous, the vortex mixers accommodate test tubes, vials, cylinders, or in some cases microplates. Constructed of rugged, corrosion-resistant materials, the instruments will endure heavy everyday usage.
