Explore the complete collection of MP Biomedicals™ FastPrep™ homogenizers and accessories, lysing matrices, and nucleic acid extraction kits to help optimize your workflow.

FastPrep homogenizers offer rapid and effective bead-beating action that can lyse and homogenize most plant and animal tissue and other organic samples. Then extract, purify, and further analyze the released nucleic acids with FastPrep DNA and RNA Isolation kits.

To help you choose the right homogenizing products to fit your needs:

  • Determine the number of samples being processed
    Based on the sample sizes and volumes, choose a homogenizer and identify the adapters or other accessories needed for your samples
  • Choose an appropriate lysing matrix and extraction kit
    Make a selection based on the type of sample (soft tissue, woody stems, microbes, etc.) and sample volume
  • Review the available FastPrep Starter Kits
    One of the starter kits may be suitable for your application

Select a FastPrep Homogenizer

The bead-beating technology of FastPrep systems completely lyses virtually any sample in seconds. Choose a legacy benchtop instrument, a version that features increased power levels, a high-throughput homogenizer, or a hand-held model for field or remote work.
