MP Biomedicals: A World of Biotechnology and Diagnostics Solutions
24 Oct 2016
MP Biomedicals offer a comprehensive line of Life Sciences, Fine Chemicals and Diagnostics products. At SfN 2016, MP Biomedicals, will demo the FastPrep-24 5G Sample Prep System, the MPure-12 automated nucleic acid purification platform; and feature diagnostics, immunology and cell biology products.
MP Biomedicals was founded in 1958 selling radiochemicals to researchers, before expanding into radio-immunoassays (RIA) and specialty chemicals. MP Diagnostics, a division of MP Biomedicals, remains a preeminent manufacturer of specialty RIAs for clinical diagnostics and research. It was Genelab’s researchers that first identified and cloned the Hepatitis E virus in 1990. MP Diagnostic’s infectious disease line has grown to include patented MULTISURE point-of-care (POCT) screening and confirmation tests, such as the first and only FDA-approved HTLV confirmatory test, HTLV Blot 2.4. Through development and acquisition, MP Diagnostics has become a world-class supplier of assays and reagents used in clinical diagnostics, biomedical research, veterinary sciences, newborn and blood donor screening, and infectious disease, drug-of-abuse and cardiac testing.
MP Biomedicals’ products are available globally and it continues to expand its portfolio with high quality and innovative products. Products include a wide array of Molecular Biology products, including our flagship FastPrep® Family of automated sample preparation instruments, accessories, and DNA, RNA and protein purification kits. At SfN 2016 we will showcase the FastPrep-24 5G sample prep instrument, and the MPure-12, our automated robotic nucleic acid purification platform. MPure-12 combines magnetic bead based technology, fully integrated with an easy to use combination of 15 different sample specific reagent kits, allowing for walk-away purification from a wide variety of biological samples. This platform offers our customers superior yield, purity, reliable performance, flexibility and convenience, all at an affordable price. MP Bio also supplies immunology and cell biology products, including antibodies, antigens, purified proteins (enzymes, albumins, selection agents, cytokines and growth factors), culture media, sera, cell separation medium and immunoassay reagents.
MP Biomedicals is dedicated to providing researchers innovative and quality tools to meet their needs with unparalleled service. While it offers more than 55,000 products in research-size packages, many are also available in bulk or custom sizes at competitive prices for use in manufacturing processes through our Fine Chemicals Division.

FastPrep-24™ 5G
MP BiomedicalsThe FastPrep-24™ 5G Instrument is quite simply the most advanced sample preparation system ever! The only high-speed benchtop homogenizer featuring microprocessor-controlled, Hi-Def Touch Screen Programming makes the 5G the ultimate in ease, speed and performance for sample preparation applications where it is necessary to grind, lyse, or homogenize difficult and routine samples, allowing easy and reproducible isolation of stable RNA, active proteins and full-length genomic DNA. Applications include but are not limited to: biological tissues, fluids and excretions cell cultures environmental sample other inorganic solid matrices. The FastPrep-24™ 5G Instrument uses a unique, optimized motion to disrupt cells through the multidirectional, simultaneous beating of specialized Lysing Matrix beads on the sample material. Samples and buffers are added to Lysing Matrix Tubes containing specialized Lysing Matrix beads, supplied ready-to-use, certified nuclease-free and in a variety of sample type specific compositions. The sample tubes remain securely sealed during the processing and the single use design eliminates cross-contamination. Program parameters are easily set using the touch screen user interface, or choose from many Recommended Programs stored on the 5G's onboard computer. With a simple touch of the "run" button, in less than a minute your samples are completely lysed, super fast, every time! The highest power settings available ensure that DNA, RNA and proteins, even from difficult samples, are quickly liberated into the protective buffer, thus preserving their biological function. FastPrep-24™ 5G Exclusive Features Powerful - Highest speed range available, ideal for a wide range of applications and protects your sample Optimized - Cycle and pause programmable for true walk-away operation Convenient - >70 Recommended Programs for easy optimizations Intuitive - Interactive user-friendly interface and touchscreen Flexible - Optional sample holders allow processing from 2 - 50 mL tubes, under ambient or cryogenic conditions Smart - Integrated USB Port allows for software updates to be installed, and run history data to be downloaded to a laptop Safe - Electromechanical dome latch automatically secures processing chamber, with a simple finger touch Complete - Lysing Matrix Tubes and Purification Kits from One Source
