Pellet Pestle
Product Code : EL-BLS-10958
Last updated: 6 October 2026
Quick answer: A pestle for homogenising small amounts of tissue inside a microcentrifuge tube, for DNA extraction. Package of 5.
Grinding tissue in a mortar loses sample to the walls and risks cross-contamination between specimens. A pellet pestle works inside the microcentrifuge tube itself, so the tissue is disrupted in the tube it will be extracted in and nothing is transferred. This listing names that use directly: homogenising small amounts of tissue inside a microcentrifuge tube for the purpose of extracting DNA.
The published specification is the package quantity, 5.
Everything else is missing and some of it decides whether the pestle is usable: the tube size it fits, the material, whether it is sterile or autoclavable, and whether it is designed for hand use or for a motorised driver. A pestle shaped for a 1.5 mL tube will not reach the bottom of a 2.0 mL one. Ask for the tube size, material, sterility and drive type before ordering.
