METAL BEAD LYSING MATRIX
Product Description
TallPrep™ Metal Bead Lysing Matrix, 4.5 mL Tubes contains stainless steel beads. Will not bind nucleic acids.
Application Notes
Metal Bead Lysing Matrix is used to break hard/brittle samples. Specialty applications include RNA and protein extraction from difficult samples where lysis by impaction only is preferable with minimal amounts of mechanical shearing.
