Tissue homogenization for reproducible & efficient sample preparation

 

The Precellys® range of homogenizers from Bertin Health & Life Sciences use bead-beating technology to homogenize biological samples, such as human, animal or plant tissues, or to lyse micro-organisms. Biological samples are ground via multi-directional movement (3D bead-beating), the speed of which can reach up to 10,000 rotations per minute, depending on the instrument. It takes just a few dozen seconds to homogenize samples, which are then ready for an analysis of the molecules of interest (nucleic acids, proteins, metabolites) using different analysis techniques: PCR, sequencing, Western Blot, liquid chromatography, etc. This represents a considerable time saving that simplifies sample preparation protocols.
