Tissuelyser II

Tissuelyser II

The TissueLyser II system by Qiagen disrupts biological samples through high-speed shaking in plastic tubes with stainless steel, tungsten carbide, or glass beads.

Applications include DNA, RNA, and protein release from diverse sample types including plant and animal solid tissue, bacteria, fungi, insects, soil and more. Highly reproducible purification of high-quality DNA, RNA, miRNA, and protein is achieved, even with difficult-to-lyse tissues. LSCF has the adapter plates that hold 48 samples using 1.5 to 2.0 ml eppendorf-style tubes, or low profile o-ring tubes.

Specialized applications may require purchase of alternate adapter plaes, (2x 10 ml tubes or 192 x 1.9 ml tubes) specific beads, or reagents such as RNALater RNA Stabilization Reagent or Allprotect Tissue Reagent. Secure closing tubes could also be purchased (i. e., Eppendorf Safe-Lock micro test tubes). 10 ml shaker plates, or plates holding 2x 96 samples are available for purchase from Qiagen.
