Minilys - Personal Tissue Homogenizer by Bertin Instruments
Manufacturer Bertin Instruments
Minilys is a flexible and personal homogenizer for cell/sample disruption for daily lab workflow.
Minilys is a small and compact homogenizer for fast hands-free disruption of a wide range of biological samples (prior to DNA, RNA, proteins or drug extraction) at a low throughput level. Flexible (0.5ml, 2ml, 7ml lysing tubes) and easy to handle, it is the only small homogenizer that works in 3D motion, following standard protocols and providing more homogeneous results. Moreover, Minilys is extre... Read more

Good results, reduce homogenization processing time with improvement of surface
Rating: 5.0
Application Area: Nerve Tissue homogenize and following RNA work
"Overall of shape and function is reasonable. Tube and pestle shapes are perfect match. However, if the surface is not smooth, it might be helpful to grind nerve tissue"

Application Area:Preparation of mouse tissue samples for Protein extraction
"Very easy to operate and a very small benchtop equipment. It takes a while to adapt current protocol to maximise extraction, however, guidelines for each tissue type are provided. Overall, it is a useful tool to have."

The Minilys allow us to performed new experiment that couldn't have been done before in our lab with our classical preparation of homogenates
Rating: 4.3
Review date: 16 Dec 2015 | Minilys - Personal Tissue Homogenizer
Application Area:Reproducible homogenization of muscle samples for quantitative western blot analysis
"We have planned to analyze a specific protein in mouse skeletal muscle to study the effect of a treatment. We had about 50 samples to analyze, and the protein is sensitive to proteolysis. Thanks to the MiniLys it has been possible to performed this experiment and to produce high quality homogenates, without degradation. We can have performed the quantitative analysis and show a nice kinetics of degradation of our protein due to the treatment of the mice and not to the processing of the samples! "

Minilys Tissue Homogenizer Features:
- Efficient & rapid - Minilys offers the same bead-beating technology and extremely high quality as the Precellys homogenizer range, is the only small homogenizer on the market that disrupts samples using 3D motion and is by far the most efficient one.
- Safe & easy-handling - Minilys ensures easy-handling and safe operations. Its innovative cut-out system automatically stops the operation if the lid is not firmly closed or is opened while running, thus providing additional safety guarantees for users.
- Flexible & ready-to-use - Minilys accommodates a wide range of sample types from animal & plant tissue to microorganisms. With 3 different speeds ranging from 3000 to 5000 rpm, Minilys can handle either low-velocity agitation or harsh homogenization. Detachable tube-holders are adapted to three volumes of lysing tubes (0,5ml, 2ml or 7ml), providing the flexibility to vary your sample size and volume.
