Adapter

This is the strongest FastPrep-24™ adapter, intended for the most difficult and long-lasting lysis applications. Due to its metal construction, it can be continuously run on a FastPrep® indefinitely without the possibility of de-polymerization. This all-metal adapter can resist high temperatures up to 450°C and can be sterilized by pyrolysis. Furthermore, the specially designed claws prevent tubes from auto-rotation during lysis, thus allowing continuous tracking of tube labels and/or bar codes. The major use of this adapter is for lysing highly contagious samples and samples suspected of harboring prions. Due to its ability for high-temperature sterilization, this is the safest solution for CNS tissue lysis and other applications where prions or other disease-causing agents may be present. 15 mL tubes metal adapter for FastPrep-24™
