µMiniBeadbeaterThis non-foaming, non-aerosol method is the method of choice for isolating enzymes, nucleic acids and organelles from small samples. It is commonly used with PAGE, PCR applications and diagnosis using antibody or oligonucleotide probes. High yields of intact DNA or RNA are obtained by simultaneous disruption and extraction in phenol, guanidinium-SCN solution, or a commercial kit reagent. Sterile techniques are easily accommodated to recover viable intracellular virus and bacteria from plant and animal cells.  Because the beads and vials are disposable, there is absolutely zero cross-contamination between samples - an essential feature for PCR techniques.
