Product Description
Grind infectious or hazardous tissue without exposing staff to sample aerosols. Homogenizing inside a sealed container keeps material contained from start to finish, protecting the operator and preventing contamination of the work area and other samples. Disposable construction also removes the need to clean and decontaminate grinders after use.
