Sample homogenization for DNA extraction
We implemented the Precellys Evolution Tissue Homogenizer two years ago in our lab. I am extracting fungal DNA out of plant tissue (wood and leaves). Before we used an old bead mill and we were not satisfied as the samples required long, heavy beating to get properly homogenized, which was disadvanteagous as they heated up to much and therefore needed cooling breaks in between. Additionally, we could only prepare 8 samples at a time. In total, the procedure of homogenization was not working properly. With the precellys evolution homogenization only needs about 2 minutes for 24 samples with satisfying results regarding mechanical disruption of the samples. The results we achieve subsequently are very good. We established several protocols that work very well, although our samples usually contain only very small amounts of the target DNA.
