FastPrep Homogenizers and Lysis system
MP Bio offers a complete range of bead beating, cell lysis and tissue homogenization solutions to suit your sample preparation needs.
Utilizing bead-beating technology, the FastPrep system provides complete lysis of virtually any sample type and is suitable in a variety of applications from soil analysis to forensics. Mechanical tissue homogenization with the FastPrep system enables the isolation of DNA, RNA, proteins, and other small molecules while eliminating the need for chemicals or enzymes, which can inhibit downstream processes.
FastPrep-24 5G
A versatile sample disruption instrument designed to quickly and efficiently homogenize, grind, or lyse biological samples. A completely self-contained system, the FastPrep-24 5G eliminates the risk of cross-contamination and time-consuming clean-up associated with manual lysis methods. Samples are added to individual lysing matrix tubes and placed into sample holder adapters within the instrument. The unique, optimized motion of the FastPrep-24 5G shakes the samples in a tridimensional motion resulting in the collision of the sample material with the lysing matrix particles.
Intuitive software makes programming the FastPrep-24 5G fast and simple. The programmable touchscreen display allows for the use of pre-determined or custom homogenization speeds and duration times with a finger touch. Increased power features result in faster processing times and complete lysis of even the toughest samples.
FastPrep-24 Classic
A high-speed benchtop homogenizer offering the ultimate in speed and performance for the lysis of biological samples. Simultaneous homogenization of up to 24 samples takes place within 40 seconds.
FastPrep-96
A versatile high-speed homogenizer offering the ultimate in high-throughput sample preparation. Developed for resistant samples, the FastPrep-96™ instrument uses a high-speed linear motion to disrupt thoroughly any tissues and cells in just seconds through the simultaneous beating of specialized Lysing Matrix beads on the sample material. This high-performance system saves hours of work during the sample preparation stage and allows for the purification of high yields of intact DNA, RNA, proteins and other metabolites.
SuperFastPrep-2™
A compact, cordless, hand-held sample disruption instrument designed to quickly and efficiently homogenize, grind, or lyse biological and environmental samples. It can be used at remote locations and in most weather conditions for the immediate collection, processing, and preservation of samples.
SuperFastPrep-2 uses a unique mechanism mounted on a rotary tool designed to operate at 600 to 4,800 cycles per minute with a fully charged battery. The self-contained device holds two standard 2 mL screw cap Lysing Matrix tubes optimized for a wide selection of sample types. Included with the unit is a rotary handle, two lithium ion rechargeable batteries, charging station, voltage converter, and protective carrying case.
