Best practices in microorganisms sample preparation with Precellys Homogenizers

Reproducible microorganisms’ analysis depends on a robust and unbiased microbiome workflow. Cell lysing is an important step before proceeding to the extraction of DNA, RNA, proteins or live bacteria from samples. Mechanical lysis using beads (bead beating) is considered the gold standard method to lyse various types of cells and microbes. The Precellys tissue homogenizer is capable of performing cell and microbes lysis within minutes thanks to its 3 D bead beating technology.
