TissueLyser Adapter Set 2 x 24
The TissueLyser Adapter Set 2 x 24 (cat. no. 69982) allows disruption of 48 samples in parallel
using standard 2 ml microcentrifuge tubes (e.g., Eppendorf Safe-Lock micro test tubes
*
). The
adapter set contains 2 adapters, with each adapter comprised of a top plate, a bottom plate, and
a tube holder for holding 24 microcentrifuge tubes (Figure 4). Sample disruption can be carried
out at room temperature or after storing the adapter set at –80°C for at least 2 hours. The adapter
set can be cleaned with detergent, microbicides, or up to 96% ethanol. For more information, see
the product sheet supplied with the adapter set.
*Use of other tubes in combination with 7 mm diameter beads may result in the beads getting lodged in the lids of the tubes.
