Omni Bead Ruptor 24 Elite bead mill homogeniser

Click2Contact

The Bead Ruptor 24 Elite, from Omni, is the most powerful bead mill homogeniser available — calculated from speed and displacement, the g-forces generated by the BR24E exceed all other bead mill homogenisers on the market. It is suitable for grinding, lysing and homogenising biological samples prior to molecular extraction.

The product includes an intuitive touch-screen controller with the ability to store up to 99 programs for quick recall. It also offers versatility, with the ability to process virtually any sample size including 0.5, 1.5, 2, 7, 15, 30 and 50 mL tubes as well as strip-well tubes. Cryogenic processing is easy with the addition of the Omni Cryo 24 system.

An integrated lid lock prevents opening during use and the front-loading design facilitates easy loading/unloading of samples.

Due to greater tube displacement and acceleration, and a carriage motion which minimises swirling, the unit is said to produce greater impact forces than any other bead mill on the market for maximum processing efficiency. With its large capacity and no cooldown time requirement between cycles, the device maximises throughput.

The homogeniser is configured for use with the Omni range of nucleic acid extraction kits, enabling users to extract high-yield/high-quality protein, DNA and RNA from tissues, yeast, bacteria, soil or faeces. The kits can also be supplied without bead tubes for use with other prep methods.
