In order to obtain optimal yields of DNA from sample material, a complete disruption of the sample material is necessary. Sample disruption efficiency depends on the parameters such as type of bead tube or bead plate, time and frequency and also the discrution device. Please find below our suggested recommendations for the MN Bead Tube Type F in combination with different nucleic acid purifiaction kits.
Compatible with the following kits
Sample processing recommendation using a RETSCH Mixer Mill
MN Bead Tubes Type F are not recommended for use with high impact devices such as the RETSCH Mixer Mill due to the risk of tube rupture.
