FastPrep-24™ 5G Instrument

The FastPrep-24™ 5G Instrument is a high-speed benchtop reciprocating homogenizer offering the ultimate in speed and performance for the optimal lysis of biological samples. Developed for difficult and resistant samples, the FastPrep-24™ 5G Instrument grinds, homogenizes and lyses thoroughly and quickly any tissue and cells providing easy and reproducible isolation and purification of stable RNA, active proteins and full-length genomic DNA. The FastPrep-24™ 5G is software controlled, standalone instrument, designed with a user-friendly touch screen and unique features of highest speed and power, shortest processing times, intuitive programming, fully automated protocols, and over 70 pre-programed optimized protocols for your application needs!

Get the most biologically active DNA, RNA and proteins

The FastPrep-24™ 5G delivers the most DNA, RNA and proteins from any sample type including the most resistant samples in 40 seconds or less. FastPrep-24™ 5G has the highest speed and combined with a unique optimized motion to disrupt cells, the multidirectional simultaneous beating of specialized Lysing Matrix Beads on the sample material, the FastPrep-24™ 5G provides the highest yields and purity. This is the only available homogenizer with 9 interchangeable adapters which allows a unique versatility in sample number, size and temperature control. Simultaneous homogenization of up to 48 samples takes place within 40 seconds. The FastPrep-24™ 5G system used with FastPrep® Purification Kits and Lysing Matrix Compositions are a complete solution optimized to provide the highest quality results of yield and purity of intact, active biomolecules from any tissue or cellular sample type!
