News for Sample preparation homogenizers

Preparing high-quality emulsions is a critical step to successfully generate specific antibodies. The generation of antigen-specific antibodies is especially important since it involves the injection of an immunogenic antigen-adjuvant emulsion in animals at defined time intervals. The two-syringe technique is widely employed as the standard method for emulsion preparation. Despite its popularity, this method has […]

Nucleic acid isolation is an essential step in molecular biology and is the starting point of most downstream experiments. As these molecules are fragile, it is important to ensure efficient grinding while preserving biological compounds. Precellys homogenizers have been used for DNA and RNA extraction and sample preparation all over the world for many years. […]

Micro RNAs are small naturally occurring non-coding ribonucleic acids, with sizes between 18 and 40 nucleotides (nts). Found in plants, animals and viruses, they have been proven to play a significant role in RNA silencing and the regulation of gene expression. As a result, interest in smaller RNA species, such as miRNA, has increased. In […]

Sample prep is a curious and difficult task. It is not always easy to choose the right equipment, accessories and workflows since everything depends on the sample to prepare and homogenize. Homogenization of tough samples, such as bones, is even more complicated. The biggest challenge when working with such tissues is efficient sample processing. The […]

Made of high-quality materials, these kits offer significant versatility for tissue homogenization, facilitated by a range of tube sizes available (0.3, 0.5, 2, 7, and 15 mL).  Overall, Bertin Health & Life Sciences offers more than 30 different lysing matrices. The variety of Precellys […]

The experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model is frequently used to identify new drug targets for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS), due to its similar immunological and clinical features. While there are several different disease courses of MS, EAE models can reflect some of the different clinical manifestations. For instance, MOG-induced EAE in C57BL/6J mice […]
