Enzyme Assay from Frozen Abdominal Krill Tissue using Precellys®24 with the Cryolys Cooling Option
17 Aug 2015This application note presents a study in which the presence of a circadian clock in Antarctic Krill was investigated in relation to key physiological processes. Circadian oscillations were observed through gene expression of metabolic key enzymes. A Precellys®24 high-throughput tissue homogenizer was used for sample preparation enabling high quality and efficient assays.

Homogenizers and BlendersHomogenizers and blenders are used to homogenize various types of material, including tissue, cells, plants, food, soil, biological and chemical samples for subsequent analysis. Lab equipment for sample homogenization includes handheld and benchtop homogenizers, bead mill, ultrasonic and multiple sample homogenizers, high shear homogenizers and blenders. Homogenizer bead and probe multipacks are available to avoid cross contamination of samples, as well as cooling systems for homogenizing temperature-sensitive samples. Homogenizers are often used in the first step of extraction of DNA, RNA and proteins from tissue and cell samples.
