Technical cell or tissue disruption

Homogenisation and disruption can be achieved by the mechanical Bullet blenders in a simular way but with less heating as with sonicators for cellular disruption and lysis. Instread of using sonication with utrasonic disruption of cells or tissues, the bullet blender technique and bullet blender gold will use gentle and heat absent cell lysis. Bullet Blenders can use more than 50gr of cell quantities. Homogenisers of French press for e.Coli lysation are less performant than bullet blenders even with 2 passages at 15,000 psi! DNAse can be added to preserve DNA for degradation for Epigenetics applications or for PCR.
Technical information about the Bullet Blenders

Name

Centrifugation, Density Gradient
Concept

Scope note: Separation of particles according to density by employing a gradient of varying densities. At equilibrium each particle settles in the gradient at a point equal to its density. (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)
