Winner of the 2012 Red Dot Design Award, ULTRA-TURRAX® Tube Drive (UTTD) and Tube Drive Control accommodate hermetically sealed tubes with integrated dispersing tools. The design of the UTTD eliminates cross-contamination and safely disperses toxic, infectious or noxious substances without the operator coming in contact with the material. Available workstations are ideal for quickly equipping labs with all the components needed for homogenizing hard and soft sample materials.

The integrated tool within UTTD Processing Tubes prevents operators from coming into contact with toxic, infectious and noxious materials being processed. These hermetically sealed tubes remain sealed even when dispersion speed is as high as 8000 revolutions. Select tubes have pierceable membranes for adding or removing samples and gamma-sterilized tubes are ideal for sensitive procedures requiring additional sterility.
