Vortex Genie® 2 Vortex blends fluids quickly and thoroughly with a true vortex action that prevents spilling, even when tubes are uncapped.

  • Application Area: small volume mixing

"A workhorse of the biological and medical science laboratory, the Fisher Vortex Genie 2 vortexes samples. It lacks bells and whistles, doing its job effectively, forever. There are no caveats to this purchase."

Brand name actually matters here

  • Application Area:Sample mixing

"Yes, mixers all basically do the same thing. But it turns out, all vortexers aren't Vortexers. The thing you gain when you go with brand name Vortex Genie 2 is the ability to give strong gyration motion to the sample at LOW speed rotation. Sometimes I want just enough force to get the fluid to tornado in the tube, but not so much that it swirls up into the cap, or the sheer forces disturb the sample. Vortex brand mixers have strong enough motors to do this at low revolutions whereas distributor brand ones do not. It's worth sticking with brand name for this application. "

"A cheap and reliable mixer. Designed for short term mixing so overheats if left mixing overnight. It has a good variety of attachments."

Vortex Genie® 2 Vortex blends fluids quickly and thoroughly with a true vortex action that prevents spilling, even when tubes are uncapped. It is capable of ranges from gentle yet thorough shaking action to extreme vigorous vortexing depending on the speed and attachment chosen. A 3-position power switch lets you select continuous action, or "Touch On" control. With true “Hands-Free” operation lab operators can greatly increase efficiency. The operator completely controls the mixing of test tubes, beakers and flasks by varying the speed of the motor and/or the angle of contact and pressure against the mixing head.
