Bead Ruptor Elite
Sample Preparation made easy.
Lyse the toughest samples in seconds with The Bead Ruptor Elite. The Bead Ruptor Elite is the most advanced and easy to use bead mill homogenizer available. It is specifically designed for grinding, lysing, and homogenizing biological samples prior to molecular extraction.
- Wide range of accessories for any sample size – 24 x 0.5 mL, 24 x 1.5 mL, 24 or 48 x 2 mL, 12 x 7 mL, 12 x 15 mL, 6 x 30 mL, 3 x 50 mL.
- Most powerful bead mill on the market – homogenize the most challenging samples
- New touch screen interface. Sample Preparation at your fingertips.
- OptimateTM sample prep software
- No cool down required between runs: process hundreds of samples per day
- Convenient front loading design, 99 programmable memory settings, and multilingual user interface
- Features an integrated lid lock to prevent lid opening during operation
- The ideal homogenizer for preparing samples when extracting DNA, RNA, proteins, and small molecules
- Optimized tube motion ensures highest performance
The Bead Ruptor Elite is designed with a unique carriage motion to ensure that the intra-tube bead movement reduces swirling and results in the highest bead impact forces of any bead mill on the market. The increased power of the Bead Ruptor Elite decreases processing time and reduces sample heating to maximize sample preparation efficiency.
Warning – Do not run the bead mill without a tube carriage.


Increase protein, DNA and RNA yields with the Bead Ruptor Elite
The Bead Ruptor Elite unique tube carriage motion coupled with sample specific bead beating materials ensure that a thorough homogenate is achieved regardless of the sample type. The high lysing efficiency of the Bead Ruptor Elite results in a increase in nucleic acid, protein and small molecules yields and increases the sensitivity of the downstream assay.


Wide range of bead kits for any sample type
Omni International offers users ultimate flexibility with a range of bead beating tubes and lysing matrices to support homogenization of any sample type.
