Key features
- Wet or dry grinding: Works with both fresh (wet) and dried samples
- Reinforced 2 mL tubes: Designed to handle high-speed bead beating without cracking
- Pre-filled beads: Ready-to-use tubes for consistent sample disruption
- RNase/DNase free: Helps preserve nucleic acids for downstream applications
- Typically supplied with ~50 tubes per kit
What it’s used for
- DNA/RNA extraction
- Tissue homogenisation (animal or plant)
- Grinding tough or fibrous samples
- Microbiology and molecular biology workflows
It’s commonly used in bead mill homogenisers (like Bullet Blender, Precellys, Omni, etc.), and is considered equivalent to other kits like Qiagen or MP Biomedicals lysis matrices
When you’d choose this kit
This specific kit is ideal if you need:
- A general-purpose grinding kit (not just soft or hard tissue only)
- High durability tubes (less risk of breakage during high-speed runs)
- Consistent results across mixed sample types
