Need to homogenize a frozen or cold sample? Worried about your sample denaturing?
Our PRO Homogenizers love the cold!
Unlike sonication and bead-beating homogenization techniques, our mechanical, rotor stator generators probes can quickly and effectively process your cold or frozen sample in mere seconds without producing heat.
The tip is to choose a PRO generators probe that is best for your sample size, type and tube.
All of our PRO Generator probes are precision crafted with a very narrow clearance between the inner rotating shaft and outer tube/chamber. This allows for quick, effective and repetitive homogenizing, meaning you will get the results you want each and every time.
It is important to note that a liquid medium such as a reagent or buffer will need to be added to the frozen or cold sample in order to maintain proper operation of the PRO Homogenizing Equipment.
Here are just some of the many application references of frozen or cold sample homogenizing with a PRO Scientific Homogenizer:
Frozen wet human skeletal muscle homogenization – PRO250 Homogenizer
Zebrafish frozen in liquid nitrogen homogenization – PRO200 Homogenizer
Rat liver samples homogenized with a constant gentle stream of nitrogen gas – PRO200 Homogenizer
Frozen placental tissue homogenization – PRO200 Homogenizer
Frozen, iced rat samples homogenized – PRO200 Homogenizer
Cortex tissue samples frozen in isopentane/dry ice homogenization – PRO Homogenizer
Tissue sample with cold protein extraction solution homogenization – PRO200 Homogenizer
