OmniLyse Cell Lysis Kits

Product Overview:
OmniLyse® Lysis Kit is an ultra-rapid and mechanical cell disruptor, capable of lysis in roughly one minute with even hard-to-lyse gram-positive organisms and is hailed by the USDA as the best available method.

"OmniLyse methods provided the greatest consistent yield of genomic DNA."- Irwin et al. BMC Microbiology (2014) 14:326 - USDA publication - Near-Quantitative Sampling of Genomic DNA from Various Food-Borne Eubacteria

The OmniLyse® Lysis Kits utilize a bead beating method to quickly shear open cells without the use of harsh chemicals, wash baths, or a centrifuge. The OmniLyse is operated by a battery pack and can be used anywhere. Capable of disrupting most types of cells, the OmniLyse® Lysis Kit is an excellent fit for various downstream applications. The OmniLyse® Kits are highly customizable and allow for easy integration into systems and applications for commercially available products or in earlier phases of product development.

Key Features:
- Rapidly lyses a wide range of cell types in roughly 1 minute
- Works with cells including gram-positive & gram-negative, yeast, mammalian, spores, cysts, and many more
- No chemicals or wash steps make OmniLyse® Kits ideal for sensitive assays that can be affected by the presence or organic compounds.
- Disposability and portability allow OmniLyse® Kits to be stored under normal laboratory condition. After use, the kits can then be simply thrown away without any harm to the environment.
- No centrifugation steps
- Simple protocol
