BioSpec Products Mini-Beadbeater-96, 115 volt

Supplier: BioSpec Products 1001

The MiniBeadbeater-96 disrupts cells and tissue by violently shaking a sample inside a classic 2 ml microvial or standard deep well microplate partially filled with tiny ceramic or steel beads. Complete cell disruption is achieved in 1 to 3 minutes of beadbeating. A common application is nucleic acid extraction. Up to 400 mg of tissue is added to a vial containing glass or ceramic beads and a nucleic acid extraction solution...the later often being purchased as part of a nucleic acid extraction kit. The synergy of simultaneous mechanical cell disruption and nucleic acid extraction in a chaotropic solution gives very high yields of high quality RNA or DNA. Most protocols developed using smaller capacity models of the MBB are transferable with little if any modification.
