Beads crushing method
This method is adapted to extract nucleic acids, proteins and residual substances from biological/environmental samples. Nucleic acids are often fragmented and basically served for PCR templates and not suitable for genome extraction. Used for human DNA identification, drugtoxicological examination from human hair, seed quality examination, examination of BSE and Johne’s disease, investigation of soil microflora, etc. and also sample preparation for spectroscopic analysis for resin.
