Description
MN Bead Tubes Type A are ready-to-use 2 mL tubes pre-filled with ceramic beads for mechanical sample homogenization in molecular biology and environmental workflows. Each tube supports efficient disruption of tough sample matrices prior to nucleic acid extraction, helping laboratories achieve consistent lysis performance with bead-beating instruments. Supplied as a pack of 50 tubes, the format is convenient for routine sample batches and method development without the need to aliquot bulk beads. Type A ceramic beads are suited to a broad range of solid and semi-solid materials commonly processed in soil, plant, and microbial preparation protocols. These accessories integrate smoothly with NucleoSpin-style purification schemes and other downstream DNA or RNA isolation steps that rely on thorough homogenization. Manufactured by Macherey-Nagel, the tubes offer a practical consumable option for laboratories that prefer pre-filled bead tubes for reproducibility and reduced handling. Ideal for research and analytical labs seeking reliable mechanical lysis support in high-throughput or mid-scale sample preparation.

Questions about MN Bead Tubes Type A (50)
What is this article?
MN Bead Tubes Type A (50) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Macherey-Nagel for laboratory use. It sits in DNA & RNA extraction kits, inside Molecular biology, in Microbiology lab supplies.
An extraction kit lyses the sample and then binds the nucleic acid, usually on a column or on a bead, and washes the rest away. Kits for blood, tissue, soil or a PCR cleanup are different chemistries. Yield and the size of fragments they keep are in the protocol. An RNA kit has to protect against RNase.
Molecular biology here is the handling of DNA and RNA. Extraction kits break the cell and then separate the nucleic acid from protein and from the other nucleic acid. PCR and qPCR reagents copy a chosen sequence so it can be seen. The enzymes and the nucleotides are what the copy depends on. Nuclease contamination destroys the sample before the kit can save it. Sequences are on NCBI Nucleotide. Papers are on PubMed.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Molecular biology. The sub-category is DNA & RNA extraction kits. The catalogue is Microbiology lab supplies.
Shelves beside this one are Molecular biology reagents (other) and PCR, qPCR & nucleic acid analysis reagents.
What should I check before I order?
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
