1.0 INTRODUCTION (Cont’d)
In addition, the use of the Geno/Grinder is quick, easy, and multiple samples can be run
simultaneously. A holder for 50 mL centrifuge tubes is available in a 16 tube configuration;
the holder for 15 mL tubes accommodates 24. Thus, throughput is significantly increased
over current methods, which involve shaking the tubes by hand for 2 minutes.
Features of the 2010 Geno/Grinder include: stroke-rate settings between 500 and 1750
strokes per minute and a timer which displays both the full timer setting and the minutes
and seconds left in a run.
NOTE: PLEASE DO NOT OPERATE THE GENO/GRINDER UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THESE
INSTRUCTIONS AND ARE FAMILIAR WITH ITS CONTROLS AND CLAMP MECHANISM.
THE GENO/GRINDER IS INTENDED FOR USE ONLY BY QUALIFIED AND TRAINED
PERSONNEL.
