Lysing Matrix E Tubes
Overview
Lysing Matrix E tubes from MP Biomedicals are pre-filled sample disruption vessels designed for mechanical homogenisation of biological materials. Each 15 ml tube contains a combination of ceramic and glass beads optimised for efficient lysis of tough tissues, environmental samples, and microbial cells. These tubes are compatible with bead-beating homogenisers and enable rapid and reproducible sample processing. The composition supports effective disruption across a broad range of sample types without the need for additional preparation.
