News for Sample preparation homogenizers

During the last few decades, research work has been done to investigate the different drugs of abuse in different types of biological samples, such as hair. It has become important to develop a sample preparation method for a drug panel in hair using a single operation. Precellys 24 Touch’s bead-beating technology and LUXON-MS/MS’s unrivaled screening […]

Over the past decades, to counteract the use of cannabis as a recreative drug, most world authorities have banned all Cannabis varieties without making a distinction. However, recently, some countries have authorized the cultivation of hemp (Cannabis sativa) cultivars characterized by a low amount of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), responsible for Cannabis psychotropic effect. Since then, the […]

The DNA extraction is a method to purify DNA by using physical and/or chemical methods from a sample, separating DNA from cell membranes, proteins and other components. The extraction has five basic steps : cellular lyses, separation of the soluble DNA from cell debris, binding the DNA of interest to a purification matrix, washing proteins and […]
