The CP02 cryoPREP: A Revolutionary System for Tissue Sample Preparation
The Covaris CP02 cryoPREP is a high-performance system for preparing tissue samples for biological analysis. This automated system is specially designed to pulverise solid tissue samples while maintaining extremely low temperatures, typically below -70°C. This approach maximises pulverisation efficiency, which is crucial for obtaining finer particles and improving the recovery of target molecules.
One of the main advantages of the CP02 cryoPREP is its ability to process a variety of tissue types, including soft tissues such as liver and muscle, as well as harder tissues such as bone and seeds. The system uses single-use tubes called tissueTUBEs, which are available in different sizes to accommodate various sample masses. These tubes are designed to prevent cross-contamination and can be directly immersed in liquid nitrogen, ensuring optimal cryogenic conditions.
The pulverisation process is fast and efficient, with processing times often less than one second. This allows users to quickly prepare samples for further analysis, such asacoustic homogenisation or other extraction techniques. The CP02 cryoPREP is also equipped with safety features, including safety switches that prevent the device from being used if operating conditions are unsafe.
In addition to its pulverisation capabilities, the CP02 cryoPREP is designed to be easy to use and maintain.
The Covaris CP02 cryoPREP is an essential tool for research laboratories requiring accurate and efficient tissue sample preparation. Its combination of cutting-edge technology, ease of use and reliability makes it an ideal choice for modern biological applications.
