Optimized tube motion ensures highest performance

The Bead Ruptor 24 Elite is designed with a unique carriage motion to ensure that the intra-tube bead movement reduces swirling and results in the highest bead impact forces of any bead mill on the market. The increased power of the Bead Ruptor 24 Elite decreases processing time and reduces sample heating to maximize sample homogenization efficiency.

Bead impact forces generated by commercially available bead mills

Bead impact forces are calculated as a function of tube acceleration, tube displacement and the motor force applied to the tube. The Bead Ruptor 12 and 24 Elite have the broadest force range and produce the highest impact forces of any bead mill on the market. This results in an increased processing efficiency on the Bead Ruptor platforms.

Increase protein, DNA and RNA yields with the Bead Ruptor 24

The Bead Ruptor 24 unique tube carriage motion coupled with sample specific bead beating materials  ensure that a thorough homogenate is achieved regardless of the sample type. The high lysing efficiency of the Bead Ruptor 24 results in a increase in nucleic acid, protein and small molecules yields and increases the sensitivity of the downstream assay.

Total mRNA yields and relative purity

Absorbance values at 260 nm and 280 nm were used to determine total mRNA yield and purity following extraction. mRNA yields where on average 4 times higher when bead milling was performed compared to dounce homogenization. Nucleic acid relative purity was comparable between both methods.

Wide range of bead kits for any sample type

Omni International offers users ultimate flexibility with a range of bead beating tubes and lysing matrices to support homogenization of any sample type.
