Next Advance Navy Lysis Kits

Extra power for your tough samples. Navy Bead Lysis Kits are filled with a custom mix of stainless-steel beads for buffer volumes between 300 uL and 600 uL. They're great for samples that are too large for a Green Kit and deliver extra homogenizing power for challenging samples like bone, tumors, and hard-shelled insects such as ticks. RINO Safe-lock tube bead lysis kits are made of high-quality polypropylene and are easy to open and close. These tubes can be used in any current microcentrifuge model Bullet Blender®.

Kits are available in RNase-free or non-sterile versions.

*All colors of GATOR Kits are shipped with red silicone plugs.

Custom kits: Made to your specifications. Need a precise mixture of beads to match your SOP or homogenize an unusual sample? We offer Custom kits.

Petri Dish Plate Stickers

PetriStickers allow for petri dishes to be labeled quickly, neatly and reliably. Made with water-resistant ink, substrate and adhesives and will remain firmly attached at temperatures from 42° to 4°C. Simply remove the label's protective backing and apply it to the back of a petri dish. After labeling, the dish can be held in a comfortable position for streaking or colony transfer, stored in an incubator or refrigerator, and photographed.

PetriSeal™ Sealing Film

PetriSeal™ stretches and conforms to form a tight seal and is temperature resistant, waterproof and chemically resistant. It resists abrasion and puncture and blocks vapor loss while reducing the rate of gas exchange. Use PetriSeal™ with microtiter plates, Petri dishes and culture plates to prevent to entry of contaminants. The seal remains flexible down to -30°C and can withstand continuous exposure from -40°C to +77°C (with intermittent exposure up to 100°C). Tests have shown that PetriSeal™ leaves no adhesive residue even after two years.
