Paddle Blenders (Stomachers)

Paddle Blenders, also known by the common brand name Stomachers, are used primarily in microbiology applications to extract and wash intact microbes into solution.  They are very common tools for food testing laboratories, and are also used in environmental labs and life science research labs.

Through pressure and motion, bacteria and other microbes are expelled from a solid sample and circulated into solution.  The solution is then used for downstream analysis.
