MP Biomedicals offers the widest available selection of tube holders to best meet your needs in sample preparation. Our sample holders allow for tube sizes ranging from 2 to 250mL and are built for durability under ambient and cryogenic conditions. During mechanical lysis, the temperature within the tube can increase and can cause damage to the molecules in your sample. The cooling chamber and dry ice of our cryoadapters thus:
Tube holders made from metal are ideally suited for work with highly infectious, pathogenic, or otherwise biologically hazardous samples. They can withstand temperatures up to 450°C, allowing for sterilization by pyrolysis or autoclaving. As such, pathogens including bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, viroids, and prions can be effectively eliminated. All-metal tube holders are also safe to use with most laboratory detergents and sterilization solutions, ensuring easy care and maintenance.
Get the best results from your sample preparation by using MP Biomedicals Lysing Matrix in combination with a FastPrep™ instrument.
With over 16 unique components, FastPrep™ Lysing Matrices are impact-resistant tubes containing specific beads to meet any of your lysing, grinding or homogenization needs. They are available in 2mL, 4.5mL, 15mL, 50mL, and 250mL sizes, as well as in 96 deep well plates.
Although they are designed to be used with a FastPrep™ homogenizer, the standard size of the tubes allows their use with many other bead beaters.
MP Biomedicals supplies a complete range of organic, spin column, and magnetic bead based extraction kits for the isolation of high quality DNA and RNA. All kits included in the FastPrep™ product line contain optimized Lysing Matrix tubes for the sample homogenization step and reagents for further DNA, RNA or protein isolation. Yields and processing times are greatly enhanced through the use of FastPrep™ homogenizers.
Lysing Matrix E contains 1.4 mm ceramic spheres, 0.1 mm silica spheres, and one 4 mm glass bead. Used to grind soil and other enviromental samples.
FastDNA™ SPIN Kit for Soil is used for rapid isolation of PCR-ready genomic DNA from any environmental sample.
The MPure-32™ aNAP System is a fully automatic platform for magnetic reagent assays. It can process up to 32 samples simultaneously within a short period of time (around 40 to 60 minutes) while still achieving scientific and diagnostic requirements within a safe operating procedure. Besides its capability to extract nucleic acids with high purity and yield, the MPure-32™ aNAP System can also be used for protein extraction or separation of cells. It is easy to use for pre-filled or self-filled reagent plates.
Magbeads FastDNA and FastRNA kits are using magnetic beads technology with high binding capacity and selectivity for DNA and RNA to isolate nucleic acids. They include Lysing Matrix tubes for a thorough and rapid grinding of the sample.
High-quality nucleic acids isolated with the MagBeads Kits are suitable for a broad range of applications including real-time PCR and next-generation sequencing
The MPure-32 aNAP System is intended to be used in combination with MP Biomedicals DNA/RNA extraction kits to extract the DNA/RNA from clinical/non-clinical specimens. This instrument can be used to support sample preparation work in scientific research and in-vitro diagnostic testing.
One of the major issues in dealing with mammalian cell culture is infection due to mycoplasma. The presence of mycoplasma can alter many cellular processes and cause malfunctioning of cells in proliferation, protein synthesis, DNA transfection, etc. MP Biomedicals™ offers a complete solution for mycoplasma contamination in cell culture, from prevention, rapid detection (20 min), and sensitive detection (10CFU/mL) to effective removal (fast and low cytotoxicity).
Successfully treat infected cell culture with MRA, the most reliable solution for mycoplasma removal and prevention, ensuring quality results, including:
Trusted by labs worldwide and available exclusively from MP Biomedicals, 7X™ solutions have been used for over 50 years to provide safe and effective cleaning of laboratory benches and apparatus whenever a high degree of cleanliness is required. They are of particular value in cell culture laboratories where they have a number of advantages:
7X™ cleaning solutions should be of particular value in cell culture laboratories where
Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is widely used as a serum-supplement for in vitro cell culture media. FBS promotes healthy cell growth by providing an undefined mixture of nutrients, such as proteins, attachment factors, growth factors, lipids and hormones. However, due to its undefined nature, FBS can lead to unexpected and undesired stimulation of cells. There is also biorisk from animal protein or pathogen contamination, including risk of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). To avoid these concerns, MP Biomedicals™ has launched FastGro™, a fully chemically defined FBS replacement for cell culture use. It allows culturing of a wide range of cells in vitro without the use of serum or any animal or human derived compounds.
