Omni Bead Ruptor Elite bead mill homogenizer

The Omni Bead Ruptor Elite is an advanced and easy-to-use bead mill homogenizer. It is specifically designed for grinding, lysing, and homogenizing biological samples prior to molecular extraction. It is designed with a unique carriage motion to ensure that the intra-tube bead movement reduces swirling and results in high-impact bead milling. The increased power of the Bead Ruptor Elite decreases processing time and reduces sample heating to maximize sample preparation efficiency.

The Bead Ruptor Elite is designed with a unique carriage motion to ensure that the intra-tube bead movement reduces swirling and results in high-impact bead milling. The increased power of the Bead Ruptor Elite decreases processing time and reduces sample heating to maximize sample preparation efficiency.

The Bead Ruptor Elite unique tube carriage motion coupled with sample-specific bead beating materials ensure that a thorough homogenate is achieved regardless of the sample type. The high lysing efficiency of the Bead Ruptor Elite results in a increase in nucleic acid, protein and small molecules yields in the downstream assay.

Wide range of bead kits for any sample type.

We offer users a range of flexibility with a range of bead beating tubes and lysing matrices to support homogenization of any sample type.

Additional product information

When comparing several commercially available bead mill homogenizers based on maceration level, nucleic acid quality, quantity, amplification, and DNA shearing to determine which instruments were effective for their sample type, the authors’ wrote:

"The Bead Ruptor 24 Elite had the highest overall score when disrupting a single, uninfected adult Amblyomma americanum (Linnaeus) (Ixodida: Ixodidae) and performed well in follow-on tests…."1

The authors' continued to note,

“Upon receiving the highest score on the evaluation matrix, the Bead Ruptor 24 Elite was further tested to determine whether it could consistently disrupt a tick body enough to release detectable quantity of pathogen…. In the present study, the tested traditional bead homogenizer, the Bead Ruptor 24 [Elite], seemed to perform the best overall.”1
