Description
Qiagen TissueRuptor w/ Case and Disposable Probes
The Qiagen TissueRuptor is a handheld rotor-stator homogenizer designed for the rapid, low-throughput disruption and homogenization of human, animal, and plant samples. Operating at adjustable speeds ranging from 5,000 to 35,000 RPM, it utilizes mechanical shearing and turbulence to thoroughly break down biological tissue within 15 to 120 seconds, releasing high-quality DNA, RNA, and proteins for downstream molecular extraction.
