Homogenizers Benchtop Homogenizers
The FastPrep-24 5G instrument is a high-speed benchtop homogenizer offering the ultimate in speed and performance for the lysis of biological samples.

  • Simultaneous homogenization of up to 24 samples takes place in 40 seconds or less
  • Unique, optimized motion to disrupt cells
  • Developed for difficult and resistant samples

Samples and buffers are added to a 2.0 ml lysing matrix tube containing specialized lysing matrix beads. The ergonomic design of the instrument ensures an easy loading of the sample tubes that remains securely sealed during the processing. The homogenization speed and duration times are manually programmed using a touch screen visual display. After setting the speed and time with the touch of a button, just push 'run', and in less than a minute the samples are completely lysed. The touch screen software based interface also includes a wide range of recommended programs designed to minimize optimization times.

The FastPrep-24 5G is the only available homogenizer with nine optional interchangeable adapters which allows a unique versatility in sample number, size and temperature conditions. All adapters stand stable on the benchtop and are commonly used as tube racks for sample storage at -20 °C or -80 °C. Frozen lysing matrix tubes loaded in the adapters are ready to be immediately processed in the FastPrep-24 5G with minimal hands-on manipulation. A wide range of specialized lysing matrix tubes containing beads of different materials, sizes and shapes have been tailored to guarantee thorough homogenization of any sample. High performance purification kits, when used in conjunction with the FastPrep-24 5G, provide simple, ready-to-use methods for the release and subsequent purification of DNA, RNA and proteins.

Suitable for all sample types; lysing highly contagious samples; lysis of yeast and fungi; used for isolation of PCR-ready genomic DNA from fecal samples; used for isolation of PCR-ready genomic DNA from fungi and bacteria samples; used for isolation of PCR-ready genomic DNA from soil samples; DNA & RNA purification; lysis of bacteria; lysis of soft tissues; isolation of genomic DNA; purification of DNA; cell lysis; used to lyse cell wall of yeast; break hard/brittle samples; used to isolate DNA from virtually any source.

Accessories information: With the FastPrep-24 or FastPrep-24 5G instrument, and optimized lysing matrices, consistent reproducible results are obtained. Adapter holds 24×2 ml lysing matrix tubes. Standard adapter supplied with the FastPrep-24™ instrument. The ergonomic design of the adapter ensures an easy loading of lysing matrix tubes that remain securely sealed during the homogenization. It stands stable on the bench top and is commonly used as a tube rack. Ideally suited for high-throughput applications, up to 24 samples can be homogenized simultaneously. Additionally, frozen samples in Lysing Matrix tubes loaded in the adapter and stored at –20 °C or –80 °C are ready to be immediately processed with minimal hands-on manipulation, preventing degradation of cellular components by endogenous enzymes.

Packaging: FastPrep-24 5G instrument, power cord, standard QuickPrep adapter (24×2 ml) and user manual.
