Product news

New from PEQLAB, the UK supplier for molecular and cell biology, the Precellys 24 DUAL Homogeniser is a high powered benchtop homogeniser capable of accommodating 2ml and now larger 7ml tubes for extra large sample preparation.

With the capacity for up to 12 x 2ml tube samples or 6 x 7ml tubes, the ‘Dual’ model offers greater versatility than ever before. The 7ml tubes can accommodate up to 5 ml or 5 g of sample suitable making it especially relevant for work with plant material, large tissue samples or organs or up to 5 ml yeast or cell culture samples. Samples can be homogenised ready for downstream use in metabolite processing or RNA or DNA nucleic acid purification.

The DUAL is an extension of the homogenisation and sample preparation range from Peqlab that includes the Precellys 24, Precellys nucleic acid purification kits and sample grinding tubes.

CentrifugesCentrifuges are used to separate particulates suspended in a liquid via the application of a centrifugal force including cells, macromolecules, nanoparticles and precipitates. Centrifuges come in three sizes: microcentrifuges, benchtop and floor-standing centrifuges, depending on the volume and number of samples that require separation. When choosing a centrifuge, consider its maximum separation power indicated by its relative centrifugal force (RCF) value. Low force centrifuges reach a maximum RCF of 8,000 g, high-force centrifuges can reach maximum RCF values of 80,000 g. For extremely high forces, consider ultracentrifuges (up to 800,000 g). Refrigerated and vacuum centrifuges also known as concentrators are available for more specialized applications. A range of volumes are available for centrifuge tubes and microfuge tubes, depending on sample sizes.
